El Rugby Touch, es un deporte derivado del rugby tradicional que se juega en distintas partes del mundo, en Oceanía, Europa, Asia, Africa y Norteamérica.
Características:
- Deporte dinámico de mínimo contacto.
- Apto para hombres, mujeres y niños, sin límites de edad.
- La jugada característica es el toque, que reemplaza tackles y golpes, y se deben anotar tries.
- La pelota, que es un poco más chica que la de rugby, debe pasarse hacia atrás y no se patea, ni se juegan lines ni scrums.
- Como en el rugby, abundan jugadas como “cambio de paso” o “pisar para un lado u otro”, “cruces de jugadores”, “palomitas” para anotar tries, “pase de zeppelin” o “spiral pass”.
- Se juega en cancha de rugby, pero utilizando la mitad, en forma horizontal. Se juega también en la playa e Indoor.
- Es también una modalidad de entrenamiento que se utiliza en los equipos de rugby más importantes a nivel mundial.
- Es una oportunidad excelente para ex jugadores de rugby, de volver a las canchas con una guinda, sin correr riesgos de golpes y lesiones.

Rugby Bleep Test
OBJETIVE: To assess fitness levels of players
GEAR: Audio file Or Tape Or Cd + Cones
PLAYERS: Whole team
The Bleep Test or Multi Stage Fitness Test is a test that is a commonly used to assess aerobic fitness. It is also known as the 20 meter shuttle run test, beep test or bleep test. The test involves running continuously between two points that are 20 m apart. These runs are synchronized with a pre-recorded audio tape or CD, which plays beeps at set intervals. As the test proceeds, the interval between each bleep reduces, forcing the participants to increase velocity over the course of the test, at the point in which the participant cannot keep up they must drop out – and their score is recorded using the level table below.
Shuttle Set Up
The recording is typically structured into 23 ‘levels’, each of which lasts around 63 seconds. Usually, the interval of beeps is calculated as requiring a speed at the start of 8.0 km/h, increasing by 0.5 km/h with each level. The progression from one level to the next is signaled by 3 rapid beeps.

21 16 18.0 4.0 64 320 4780 22:06
Advantages: Large teams can perform this test all at the same time – using the free audio file provided the costs are little to none.
Disadvantages: Practice and motivation levels can influence the score participants attain. As the test is often conducted outside, the environmental conditions can also affect the results.

Rugby Tips
Like any sport rugby requires a good deal of training to be successful. You can break your training efforts into a few groups:
Strength and Power
Strength work is obviously very important to a player’s conditioning. Weights are an integral part of strength training and there is a good variety of weight training exercises for players in all positions. It is important to focus on all muscle groups as it is very important that you have strong stomach and lower-back muscles, then, for upper-body contact, strong shoulders and chest. Obviously strong legs are also vital. Good exercises include squats, leg extensions, hamstring curls and the leg press.
Speed and Agility
In the modern game of rugby working on your speed and agility is important for players in all positions, but it is of particular importance to those players in the backs, and for loose forwards.
Speed and agility drills should be done:
on different days to other training
at the beginning of a training session right after a warm up.
Basic Sprints:
Mark out a length about 40 meters apart with a halfway marker at 20 meters. Sprint from the start point to the mid point, and then jog on slowly to the end point. Turn and sprint to the mid point then slowly back to the beginning. This exercise should be done in sets of 5.
Cruise/Sprint:
Mark out a distance of 100 meters. From the start slowly accelerate to reach full speed at about 60 meters and keep sprinting as fast as you can until the end.
Hill Sprints:
In a game like rugby, where explosive speed is key, the first few steps are critical. Running up a slight hill of about 30 degrees, helps to develop your power and acceleration. This type of training should only be done over short distance of 10-15 meters, and you should rest between attempts.
General Aerobic Fitness
General aerobic fitness is very important for the game of rugby, particularly if you plan to play a full 80 minutes. Working on your aerobic fitness off session is key to your success. Jogging in particular and cycling will both help build your aerobic fitness. For coaches can use beep test to measure player fitness coming into a new session.

Wales rise to sixth in the world
At the end of a busy weekend of autumn internationals, Wales were the biggest climbers in the IRB World Rankings, up two places to sixth as a result of their 33-16 win against higher-ranked Argentina in Cardiff.
The Welsh were the only team in the world's top 10 on the rise, although Scotland's fine 9-8 victory over the third-ranked Wallabies has given them a significant 1.66 rating point change, and moved them to within touching distance of Argentina, who fell one more place to eighth.

Vickerman´s opinion
For the past four seasons both in the Waratah's gym and at Camp Wallaby at Coff's Harbour, Vickerman has had access to the MyoQuip ScrumTruk which he describes as "an asset to me during my rugby career." Recently, when forced by injury to take a break from national representation after the Super 14 Final, he went back to his club, Sydney University, to undertake rehabilitation and training. At the Uni gym he made extensive use of both the ScrumTruk and the HipneeThrust lying leg press before setting off for Cambridge.
"For me the two machines, the ScrumTruk and the HipneeThrust, have been absolutely great," Vickerman says. "The use of these machines gives the ability to build strength without putting strain on one's lower back. As a forward the strength gained transfers well onto the field due to their practicality and specificity to what we do during the game."
