Touch Rugby

Overview

Touch Rugby is one of the performance sports for girls at MCM.

Facilities

MCM has excellent Touch Rugby facilities, with unrivalled pitch space.

Training

Touch Rugby runs in Season 3, Feb-Apr. Games sessions during this time will be rugby focused. There is also regular after school training and activities sessions available for pupils to further develop as players.

Every year our best players get to showcase their development and competitiveness at a variety of competitions, whether this is the Straits Touch, Clifford Chance, or the more recent JSAC and Johor Schools festivals. These fixtures run from U10 age groups all the way up to U18 age groups which show that a depth and longevity of sporting development is available to all who take part.
