Profile

Trafford MV have a great new sport for the over 50’s on Wednesday evenings.

Walking Rugby is a non-contact version of the game based on Touch Rugby format where a tackle is a 2 handed touch. Walking is at a pace to suit the individual participants. Tries are scored to determine the winners and healthy competition is encouraged.

The game is ideal for older former players and new comers alike. Coaching in the rules is ongoing through game play.

The sport is fun and can be as energetic as you want it to be and is followed by a social chat over a drink in the clubhouse if desired.

Trafford MV is looking to encourage more participants from the local area to join in. We have a good mix of men and women playing but our doors are open for new players to join us – experience of playing rugby is not essential as we will explain the game and learn as we play.

Please contact Wilf Dooley for further info or just turn up on Wed evenings for a 6.30pm start on the far pitch. Please wear kit appropriate to the conditions.
