Information on the 2020-21 Local Touch Season

7/8/2020

0 Comments

 
We hope all our Local Touch members are all doing ok with Covid turning the world upside down over the past few months. It has been a tough time for many, so we are hoping your school communities are recovering ok. So many things in our lives have been impacted, and this includes sport in NZ.

At least two months of Community Sport has been lost this year. As such, there has been considerable collaboration between winter and summer Sport Organisations in consultation with their Local Councils, to explore options around scheduling and competition structures that will share the disruption in equitable fashion. 

As the winter season is running later than usual this year, it means our summer Touch season will be starting later than usual too. We have been informed by Council that fields will not be available until early November, after they’ve had time to do maintenance after the delayed winter season. However, summer sports have been granted access to fields until the end of March 2021.

Please note we are looking at applying for Sunnynook fields now they are operational, for our Tuesday night Seniors (Adults), Monday Juniors (Y3-6) and Thursday Juniors (Y1-6). Our Tuesday Juniors (Y1&2) will stay at Mairangi Bay Park. However no fields will be confirmed until after talks with Council. We will endeavour to let you know our confirmed venue as soon as possible.

Both Senior and Junior entry packs will be sent out to last year's school Touch Coordinators, to Senior team managers, and will be posted on this website towards the end of August 2020.

SENIOR SEMI-FINALS & FINALS 2019

11/2/2019

0 Comments

 
Click here for the Tuesday Seniors Local Touch Semi-Finals and Finals Programme.

ALL TEAMS (unless a bye) will play on the 13th and 20th February.
(Please note that All or Nothing has pulled out of Mixed Division 3B, so 1st place will have a bye this week.)

Teams need to arrive 15minutes prior to tap off, as players must be checked off before taking the field.

Please note that game times for Semi's and Finals are: 6:00pm | 6:45pm | 7:30pm. This allows time for half time talk, and for any full time tied games to go to a drop off.

Semi-Finals draws are available online.
The Finals format is available online, and team names will be updated after the 13th Feb.


Please make an extra effort everyone to get your teams to games in the last two weeks, so everyone can enjoy the Semi's and Finals.

TOUCH STARTS BACK THIS WEEK

7/1/2019

0 Comments

 
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
We hope you've all had a good summer break.

Reminder that Touch starts back this Tuesday 8th January. Please CLICK HERE to view draws.

If there are any issues with fielding a team, please let us know as soon as possible. It's not fair to other teams to inform us an hour or two before tap off, or just not showing up.
Remember, you can have as few as 4 players on field - a bit of a work out, but it has been done! For Mixed, you'll need to keep the ratio to maximum of 3 males on field.

If your team defaults, you get 0 points; but if you play, even with few numbers, you'll get at least 1 point. Could be the difference come Semi Finals time.

Tue 8th Jan Draw Change: Please note time change in Mixed Div 1 for Central Realty v Just Touch It to 6:00pm, and Touchstones XX v Chuckas to 6:40pm.

REMAINDER OF SEASON NOTES
There are 7 games left in the season for all teams.
MIXED:
  • Finish Round 1 Competition games: Tuesdays - 8th Jan, 15th Jan.

  • Re top 4 Semi's & Finals: Only players who have played the required 47% of games (eg 6 round robin games out of 13) during grading/competition rounds, will be eligible to take the field for Semis and Finals. Also note:

    • Teams playing off for the top 4 places will have their players marked off prior to Semi's and Finals games commencing.
