Peninsula Touch Association will be holding a come n try Touch Footy event on Friday 23 September from 5:30-7:00pm at McEvoy Oval, Umina Beach.
Peninsula Touch Association President, Rod Dillon, said the session was designed to give beginners an introduction to the basic rules and will involve a few simple drills followed by a modified game, allowing everyone to get involved, no matter what your skill level.
“If you’ve never played Touch but have always wanted to, this if the perfect opportunity to come and try it before committing to the season,” Dillon said.
“With our summer competition starting at the end of October and the weather starting to warm up, now is a great time to try Touch Footy.”
“We’ll have experienced coaches ready to take you through a 30–45-minute session and help you feel more confident and ready for summer comp,” said Mr Dillon.
In addition to a beginner’s come and try session, experienced coaches and first division players will also be offering free coaching to current or former teams who participate in the local competition.
“We are also keen to help teams that have previously played or are registered in the current competition with some coaching to improve their team’s performance,” Dillon said.
“So, bring your entire team down and go through a more focused session on some of the finer points of the game.”
“It is a real social event with music and local company, Hawkesbury Brewing Co. offering free tastings of their products.”
