United By Touch makes starting a consistent Touch session as easy as possible - if you’re part of a club already or just a player who wants to get a new game going in your area. All you need is a ball, a few cones, and a grass space..
And some people. People help.
Social drop-in / pick up games are a great way to brush up on your skills as an experienced player or learn the game as someone new in a relaxed, fun environment.
Each new game has the potential to not just get new people into the sport but to form new clubs and teams.
Remove Barriers – No team required. Players just turn up, jump in, and make new friends.
Flexible Format – Games run 6v6 with players subbing between teams to keep things fun, fast and friendly.
Build Community – Every session strengthens your local Touch network and can lead to new clubs forming.
Starting a session isn’t just about playing – it’s about building a local Touch community. Whether you’re introducing new players or giving experienced players more opportunities, every game you start grows the sport.
Grow the game – More sessions mean more players and stronger Touch communities
Flexibility – Run sessions when and how you like, with United By Touch support
Connection – Bring people together through sport
A friendly, welcoming atmosphere is key - new players should feel comfortable jumping in.
Even 8-10 players can make for a fun session. As word spreads, numbers will grow!
Numbers might vary at first, during holidays, adjust the game format to keep things flowing (e.g., 4v4 instead of 6v6).
List your session on United By Touch, share it on social media, and invite friends and work mates to come and bring their friends too. If you're lucky, they may invite you.
Regular sessions (weekly or fortnightly) make it easier for players to return and for new ones to join.
Take turns bringing a ball/ setting up the cones to spread the weight of organising and make the game self sustaining.
Make it easy for players in your area to find and join your game.
Get access to resources and tips to grow your session.
Connect with other Touch players and potential future clubs.
