Games will consist of 12-minute halves with a one-minute halftime.

High school touch
This is a bridging competition between junior touch and senior touch, that will be played on Wednesdays at 4.30pm, starting on February 26, 2025. The last round will be played on March 19, 2025.
Though aimed primarily at year 9 and 10 players, all high school students are welcome to play.
Players are not restricted to one module — they can play in this module as well as the senior touch module.
Registrations will open for the high school module in early February.
Cost
High school touch is $20 per player.
Senior touch
Registrations opened on Monday January 20, and registrations close on Wednesday February 5, 2025.
In term 1, senior touch will have a maximum of 24 teams, split into two pools of 12 teams.
Two female players need to be on the field at all times.
Referees will be provided.
One pool (previously known as pool A) will be for semi-competitive teams; the second pool (previously pool B) is for social teams.
The rules and running of the games remain the same as in the past but we no longer need a grading system, and allows teams to choose the level of competitiveness they prefer.
The social league will not have a final, while the semi-competitive league will have a finals match.
Cost
Senior touch is $225 per team.
