    Tag Rugby is a 7 a side minimal contact version of Rugby. Try Tag Rugby have mixed, men's and ladies' weekday evening leagues running all across London & Reading year round.

    Play Tag Rugby in London

    Tag Rugby is a minimal contact team game in which each player wears shorts with velcro patches with two tags attached to them. The mode of play is similar to Touch Rugby with attacking players attempting to dodge, evade and pass a rugby ball while defenders attempt to prevent them scoring by "tagging" - pulling a velcro attached tag from the ball carrier. Ball movement and back line play is actively encouraged in Tag Rugby, the ball is allowed to touch the ground and some kicking is allowed. Try Tag Rugby predominantly use the Oztag rules of Tag Rugby.
