AUTC

Thanks to the AUTC Coaches who have provided match reports and season updates for their teams.

Women’s A - Jaguars

The Womens A side have done extremely well for a side with only 9 players  on the books .. The Jaguars have been challenged once or twice this season  but have always gotten over the line in the end .. The basic game plan has been to drive mid-link in their defending half then once they hit halfway fade to the other side going into link options (which we cover at training)

Men's B - Tigers

The first annual Tod and Gerry Trophy has been won by the Toddlers at city touch fields on the 30th of March. The young ones knocked over the oldies in the first two games before having compassion on the oldies in the last and letting them power their try scoring walking frames over the line enough times to draw the final game.

Thirty two club members turned up on time, and one decided that in the world of himself that daylight saving had finished that day and was therefore an hour late. The split for the ages was a stately 30 for the men and measly 24 for the women.

A bbq completed the days proceedings. I reckon it was a damn good day, and thanks need to be given to Henna and Spurlo for making sure it all happened. Thanks needs to go to Roola and GT for having a boat load of fun the night before and refereeing with intense head aches.

The first (hopefully annual) Toddlers & Geriatrics Trophy will be contested this weekend on Sunday the 30th of April at the City Touch Fields at 11am.

The Toddlers and Geriatrics of the club will be selected on the day, the median age of the men and the women in attendance will determine the teams for the games. The younger half being the quick and explosive Toddlers, the Older portion thinks of themselves as quick in the brain and intelligent touch players.

All club members are invited to attend, it promises to be a fun day of AUTC v AUTC touch.

Sun, sand, fun and plenty of touchdowns was the order of the day as the Adelaide University Touch Club held their annual beach touch competition at Henley Beach on the Australia Day holiday.

A faster and more frenetic version of the increasingly popular social sport, beach touch pits 3 attackers against 2 defenders ensuring a high scoring game with plenty of dives as teams try desperately to make touchdowns and defend their score line.
