Rugby inspires a unique sense of camaraderie, respect and belonging amongst players, parents and supporters that resonates both on and off the pitch. Touchliners is centred on encouraging and nurturing that spirit whilst supporting all of the players in all of the teams. We are there to help the players to enjoy and develop their rugby regardless of age or ability.

As parents, we can always be found (and usually heard!) on the touchline cheering on the players and, as an organisation, we are extremely pleased to welcome new members so we encourage you to join. As a member, your contribution can vary from general membership and attendance at social functions to involvement in the running of the society. We are a group of parent volunteers and are always looking for people to help out at social events or take on a role within the group.

Touchliners is all about rugby for all; whether your child is in the 1st Year or the Upper Sixth, one of the many E teams or the Abingdon 1st XV, we want them and you to enjoy being a part of Abingdon School rugby as much as we do. Touchliners is a great way to be involved in both the social and competitive spirits that underpin this wonderful game.

You can complete our membership form here, annual family membership of Touchliners is currently £45, all of which is invested in the development of rugby at Abingdon School.

If you have any questions regarding Touchliners or Touchliners events, please catch us on the touchline (just ask the most vocal Abingdon supporter!), talk to your year group representative or email us at touchliners@abingdon.org.uk.
