Touch football is a sports game that is very similar to rugby league but without tackling or physical contact between players. Instead of tackling, players must touch their opponents with their hands to stop the play.
The game is played with two teams of six players each, and the objective is to score more tries (touchdowns) than the other team. A try is scored when a player with the ball reaches the end of the field and touches the ball to the ground. The team with the most tries at the end of the game wins.
Players are not allowed to run with the ball, and they can only pass it backward. If a player is touched by the opponent's hand, they must stop running and pass the ball to a teammate. If a team loses possession of the ball or makes a mistake, the other team gets a turn to attack.
The game is played on a rectangular field, usually shorter and narrower than a rugby league field. There are usually no scrums, line-outs, or kicks in touch football, and the game is usually faster-paced and more focused on attacking strategies and quick passing movements.
Overall, touch football is a fun and exciting game that can be enjoyed by players of all ages and skill levels, and it is a great way to stay active while having fun with friends.
