A Tag Rugby game is played over 40 minutes with a two minute break at half-time for players to rehydrate. In a typical Tag Rugby game players of all fitness levels will compete side by side. The level of fitness required will vary depending on whether you are playing in A grade or a social grade. Even within a game the amount of fitness required will depend on how far you push yourself to get involved in the action.

Playing Tag Rugby once or twice a week, combined with other regular exercise and a balanced diet will help you maintain a healthy lifestyle. Furthermore, as socialising is a big part of Tag Rugby in London you will also have an opportunity to meet like minded people and expand your social networks.

Playing Tag Rugby is a fun way to gain fitness in a team environment without the need to slave away in a hot and sweaty gym.
