Beach Rugby Wales Junior Festival 8th May & Beach Rugby Wales XX, 19th June 2027 2027 Beach Rugby Wales ‘22 is an annual rugby festival in Swansea, South Wales, now in it’s 15th year…A great family day out with many things for children to do and enjoy.Beach Rugby is played as touch rugby, but the matches can be very physical. A few touch rugby teams that have previously taken part haven’t reached the pool stages due to the physicality of the competition.From 6 teams in 2006, over the years the tournament has grown from strength to strength with this year 48 teams taking part and teams entering from all over the UK along with a new corporate competition with many local and national companies entering. The tournament has attracted International players, past and present, Richard Hibbard, Shane Williams, Paul James, Ian Gough, Garin Jenkins and Arwel Thomas for Wales, Ireland’s Tommy Bowe, All Black’s Jerry Collins and Marty Hollah to name a few.The tournament has become so popular that the teams taking part plan their pre season around the day and use it as a team bonding weekend. Apart from the very first tournament when the weather wasn’t on our side, every year we have been very lucky with the weather and hopefully will continue on each tournament day.We are very proud with the development of Beach Rugby Wales over the last few years years and without the support of the teams, sponsors and supporters, the tournament wouldn’t be as successful as it is today. The day is a ‘Festival of Rugby’.We are looking forward to seeing you all on the 30th July 2022 for our 15th tournament.
