Frequently Asked Questions

What should I wear?

Shorts/T-shirt and trainers are fine. You may prefer to wear football boots particularly if the ground is soft. We recommend the plastic moulded type of boots or touch rugby boots rather than metal studs. You may want a dry T-shirt for afterwards.

If it's raining, do you still play?

Normally yes. ...unless it's really severe. Store http://twitter.com/millwallrugby in your phone/Blackberry/computer and we'll post a message there if we cancel a session.

What should I bring?

A bottle of water to drink, particularly if it is hot.

Do I need a gumshield or other protection?

No, touch rugby is non-contact.

Will I get hurt?

Unlikely. And we promise to get grumpy with people who play aggressively.

Am I fit enough?

If you can walk as far as the park, probably yes.

Isn't it a bit competitive?

No. We play for fun and fitness.

Are the rules complicated?

No, but tell us if you've never played before and we'll teach you and allocate a player to coach you on your first session.

I'm addicted and want to play more seriously, please help me...

We have a few teams in the Surrey Quays In2Touch leagues this Spring and Summer. For more info see here.
