Touch - RFU loses out to RFL

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.



News of an interesting development (well, at least I think it’s interesting) with the announcement today of a partnership between the England Touch Association (ETA) and Rugby Football League (RFL) to “grow oval ball sport across England”.

In many ways the two organisations are natural bedfellows, Touch having originally derived from Rugby League in Australia 50 years or so ago.

I can’t help thinking, however, that the partnership is also a something of a response to the end of the RFU/O2 Touch programme announced earlier this year and the subsequent ill-advised decision by the RFU to try to replace it with “The Touch Union”, its own new hybrid non-contact version of the game.

As far as I can see, by trying to peddle “The Touch Union” the RFU has missed a trick, losing out on an opportunity to partner with the ETA, an organisation that has around 130 affiliated clubs and leagues, with thousands of Touch players of all ages, genders and backgrounds.

 

It looks very much like the RFU’s loss is therefore the RFL’s gain.
