Touch Rugby

Touch Rugby is easy to pick up, played in mixed-gender teams and open to everyone, whatever your experience or fitness level.

No tackling, no complicated rules, just ninety minutes of running, passing and laughing as you get to know the people around you. Whether you want to get active, try something new or simply meet new faces, it's one of the best ways to do it. When you're done, the night carries on at the Third Half.

The venue

Union Park is Wembley Park's beautiful new public park, opened in 2021 in an iconic location right next to Wembley Stadium. With its pond, fountains and water features, it's a generous open green space in the heart of Wembley Park and the perfect setting for an evening on the grass.

What to bring

Comfortable clothes you can move in and trainers with no metal studs.

Good to know

There's running involved, so a small risk of minor injury, but this is a non-contact sport. Suitable for all abilities. Places are limited, so booking ahead is recommended.
