Touch has a history in rugby league and in rugby union, with the tackling of opposing players replaced by a touch. Touch is therefore not a contact sport but a limited-contact sport.
觸球最早是由英式橄欖球 (15人式) 以及聯盟式橄欖球 (13人式) 變化出來的。觸球的觸碰取代了橄欖球防守球員將對方抱截的動作。觸球是有限的接觸運動。
Distinctive features of Touch include the ease of learning, minimal equipment requirements and the ability to play it without fear of major injury.
觸球的獨特性包括容易學習,最少設備的需求以及參加者可以盡情的玩球而不必擔心重大的傷害。
While it is generally played with two teams of six on-field players, some social competitions allow different number of players per team on the field.
正常比賽是由兩支球隊各派六球員上場,但是一些社會的比賽允許不同數目的球員在球場上。
It is played by both sexes, and in age divisions from primary school children to over-50s. The mixed version of the game (where both male and female players are on the field at the same time) is particularly popular with social players, and it is widely played in schools.
觸球是一種男女老少都能參與的團體運動。男女綜合組(男女性球員同時上場)是在社會球員特別受歡迎的一種運動,也是在校園里廣泛發揮的團體運動。
