Walking Rugby sessions will have an emphasis on socialising and having fun. Walking Rugby is a simplified version of rugby, suitable for all ages, abilities and genders. After the first couple of months, we would like to increase the number of men and women playing. It is a competitive passing game, ideal for ex-players, injured and rehabilitating current players and those interested in the sport without any experience.
Walking Rugby - what you need to know
No running
No contact – similar to ‘touch rugby’ rules – two hands on shorts is all the contact made which qualifies as a tackle.
No Mauls, Rucks or Lineouts
Scrummaging – max three players per team stood in upright standing position and non-contested. Not yet introduced
Passing backwards or lateral – offside rules apply
A try requires no bending – you walk across the try line ball in hand
New recruits required – info@ketteringrugbyclub.com
If that's sparked your interest, just come along for a 7pm start on Monday evenings with a pair of old trainers (they'll get muddy!), shorts/jogging bottoms and a T shirt/sports top/warm sweatshirt. Sessions generally last about 1 hour. A warm welcome awaits, whatever your rugby ability!
