With the Renaissance Cup at CHEPSTOW RUGBY CLUB just around the corner we asked each team to tell us what #touchrugby means to them. First up the awesome Mac from @chepstowgold who got the giggles 🤣 Join us on the 24th to watch over40s touch magic!! WRU Community - Wrth galon y genedl DRAGONS RFC COMMUNITY 🐉

Wise wise words from Eddie of risca_vets_rfc (Risca Cuckoos!) .. #touchrugby is a fun game for EVERYONE. Looking forward to seeing the Cuckoos at CHEPSTOW RUGBY CLUB this time next week! WRU Community - Wrth galon y genedl DRAGONS RFC COMMUNITY 🐉

Steve from the Pontrhydyfen Saxons has it nailed on. #touchrugby helps "develop family, unity and bond". The Saxons are definitely fun to be around especially when they have "that loving feeling". Come up to CHEPSTOW RUGBY CLUB (24/9/22) to watch the Saxons play and hear their dulcet tones!

It’s Renaissance Touch Rugby Cup week. The bi-annual vets touch tournament that brings the top sides in Wales together. The next tournament is this Saturday at @chepstowgold and they will host 12 clubs, strictly over 40 years old. Can we go better than our previous two plate victories?

Love this : G of @chepstowgold. A choice of losing a leg or removing muscle mass after an accident gave G no hope of playing rugby again. Until that is he found his new #touchrugby family in 2021!

"You can take rugby seriously, but you must not take yourself too seriously.” Wise words that form the ethos of the vets #touchrugby community. Tomorrow at midday we will remember Eddie Butler, Welsh rugby icon and poet, with a rousing round of applause. Rest in peace Eddie.
