Big numbers expected in Touch Footy comp

With no rugby league to be played on the Southern Downs in 2020 there is expected to be even greater interest in the upcoming Touch football season which kicks off on July 22.

President of the Touch Association, Justin Nolan says he is expecting even bigger numbers for this season.

In an effort to entice previous and new players to the sport there will be reduction in fees. All teams that played last season will automatically requalify for the new season, and their registration fees will be waived. New players and new teams will be required to pay fees with nominations remain open right up to the kick-off date.

While social distancing, hand and equipment sanitizing will apply off field and at this stage spectators will be required to remain in their vehicles there will be nos restrictions or alterations to the on field rules.

A grand final date is yet to be announced but it is expected that the 2020 will run through until November / December.
