Disability Tag Rugby
Disability tag rugby is a fast and exciting non-contact sport that encourages the positive development of running, balance and handling skills. The sport caters for those aged 6 years plus, with no upper age limit. Disability tag rugby is fully inclusive and caters for a wide range of players, including wheelchair users and those with additional needs.
As this is a non-contact sport, players who require glasses can wear prescription sports goggles that can be purchased from most opticians.
