In the sun-soaked Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam, the Wageningen touch rugby players delivered another outstanding performance. During the touch tournament \u2014 part of the Next Generation Games, which also featured sports such as tag American football and pickleball \u2014 RC Wageningen secured the unofficial national T1 touch rugby title for the second year in a row.
RCW entered two teams: a social team and a more competitive team in the cup pool. The social side kicked things off and started strong, claiming victories over the Almere Mothers and Alkmaar. A narrow loss against the Almere mixed team meant they finished as runners-up in their pool.
Next up was RCW\u2019s competitive team. In a tense opening match, they edged past Amsterdam with a narrow win. This was followed by a physically intense match against the Bassets from Sassenheim. The opposition regularly pushed the boundaries with robust play \u2014 something unnecessary and not allowed in touch rugby \u2014 but the Wageningen side stayed focused and secured the victory. The final match against Breda was also convincingly won.
With this impressive run, the trophy cabinet above the bar has been updated once again: Friday Night Touch has now claimed its second national title in two years! <\/p>\n
