Chargers Comp Kickstarts the Season

Chargers Comp Kickstarts the Season

Due to popular demand, Manchester Chargers again ran their Annual (3rd) 'Invitational Touch Tournament'. It was the biggest and best yet, even if they do say so themselves! Teams travelled from as far away as Switzerland and Spain to be part of what they're calling ‘The Biggest Club Touch Tournament in Europe“, even the Manchester weather played on their side!

The event tied in nicely for the newly created regional teams to have some good competition before heading towards the nationals in April. A Social Mixed competition ran along side the Men's and Women's comp too, so there was something for everyone!

There was some great dynamic and skilful Touch on display in the men’s, women’s and mixed competitions and the numerous nail-biting drop-offs ramped up the excitement too!
