Tag Rugby is a safe, non-contact, fast-paced game suitable for girls, boys and adults of any ability to play together. Teams are generally 7-a-side with a preferred mix of at least 3 male and 3 female players playing at 1 time. The team can choose the gender of the 7th player.  Tackling is not allowed and there are no scrums or line-outs.  When a tag is made, the tagger stops running, holds the tag above their head and shouts TAG.  When the ball-carrier is tagged, the ball must be passed to a team mate within 3 seconds.  For progression and development coaches can use Tag Rugby to make players see where space is and encourage evasive running into spaces.  Tag Rugby can also be used to increase fitness and encourage participation.
