For those of you that keep asking (Deb

**********
Rollball
**********
Acting Half: If the acting half is touched while possessing the ball it is a turnover.
The Touch: After being touched, the player touched must roll the ball between their legs.
Hand Over: After being touched 6 times the ball is handed over to the other side.
Ball to Ground: When the ball is dropped on the ground it is a turnover.
Turnover: When the attacking side looses the ball to the opposition.
No control: When the ball is thrown, dropped, knocked on, in a touch.
**********
Penalty
**********
When someone is penalised their team must then retreat 10m.
Penalty Sequence: Ball is place on the ground, let go of the ball, touch the ball with your foot, pick up the ball.
Offside: If the defending players do not retreat they are offside.
Strong Touch: If a touch is considered to be too strong.
Forward Pass: When the ball is passed in front of the player who possessed the ball.
Touch and Pass: When the person who is touched then passes the ball.
Voluntary Rolled Ball or No Touch: When the player is not touched and rolls the ball between their legs.
More than a Meter: The ball must not be rolled more than one meter.
Shepherd or Obstruction: Obstructing a touch from the defending side.
Deviation: When a defender changes their direction before retreating straight back 5m.
Minor offences: Bickering with refs, shouldering, leg trips etc… The referee will initiate an automatic substitute between the offending player and another team player in the sub box.
Repeated offences: For repeated offences the referee will yellow card the player and have that player move to the sin bin, opposition’s deadball line, for a period of time without replacement (the referee being the sole judge).
Foul play of any nature: Will result in the offending player being sent from the field without replacement.
I’ve just found this clip from the Medway NTS (National Touch Series). It features the Raptors in Grey and Green who are one of the UK’s best touch rugby teams. I thought it would be worth showing you the standard that we wish to emulate. I truly believe that its achievable if we keep on progressing at the same rate. Bri and I will be on a coaching course with most of these guys at the end of the month so hopefully we will pick up a few tips. They came up to Wrexham for a couple of sessions and it made a huge difference to them.
What do you think of their play? Anything you notice that we could work on?

OK, so I’ve checked the touch rules and it does not say anything about jumping over the oposition near the try line! This could be a good party trick at the first Crewesaders Social.
It’s no wonder why he is sooooo bloody difficult to touch!

In our hearts we want the Lions to win but in reality we fear it may be very different. Therefore take a quick look at this vid, study the rules and take on the ELV challenge!
Just wondering how much people would be willing to pay for a team shirt? At the bare minimum it would be good to get a shirt but if possible we will try and get the full kit – shirt, shorts, socks & kit bag.
We are hoping to get something similar to the shirt on the right.
