Social Touch getting in competition!

Winning is something, but participation is everything.
- Debasish Mridha

The Social Touch team of Stade Rugby was taking part in a Touch-rugby Tournament! The event organized by Touch-Austria was including the best team around Vienna like:
- the Barbarians from Vienna
- Pragues
- Budapest
...those team being touch clubs & including international players!

Due to last summer break & a late confirmation, our players had only one training to integrate touch-rugby specific rules and to develop the proper strategy!

Through engagement and enthousiasme, we were defending proudly our line against multiple assaults limiting the score. We never gave up, also using the breaks to train harder and harder through exercices. It finally payed off by scoring a try during our last game against Barbarians, the winner of the competition!

If we ended up with three defeats, we learned a lot from this experience as a tight team.

A big thanks for the participation & the great spirit!

Thanks Isabel Antes, Touch-Austria Manager for the great organisation and for welcoming our team in this competition! Looking forward to participate in future common competition!

Esprit... Stade!
