There are currently six Lucozade Sport Touch Rugby venues running around Ireland. Lucozade Sport Touch Fit consists of full body exercises with a cardio driving, fun introduction to Touch Rugby as part of the session. There is a session for everyone, whether you’re looking for fun, competitive touch rugby matches or an introduction to touch rugby through a full body workout.
