2019 USA Touch Nationals

Mark enjoyed playing touch rugby in the Philippines, Australia and Canada. He loves a well orchestrated set move, and hates it most when his wife scores against him. We are proud to be representing Canada and helping to build the game abroad.

Taking part to this new adventure at the kick-off is a wonderful experience! I feel that the growth of touch in North America is a great challenge that engages commitment from each player. I really enjoy Touch as a complete sport : you can surpass yourself in competition and, in the meantime,
feel part of a family.
I feel very privileged and incredibly excited to get the opportunity to put on that red jersey and represent my adopted nation internationally. This trip will act as a great stepping stone for us to develop our skills for future tournaments, transfer those skills back into our local teams, and turn some heads in the process.
