How many players are on a Tag Rugby team?

Created by Connor Sweeden, Modified on Mon, 17 Jun at 1:07 PM by Gary Jeffery

Tag Rugby can be played on pitches of varying sizes, with varying numbers of players per side. The number of players on the pitch for each league is always noted on our website.


The various formats we offer and male/female split for mixed leagues are as follows:

8-a-side – four males (maximum) and four females

7-a-side – four males (maximum) and three females

6-a-side – three males (maximum) and three females

5-a-side – three males (maximum) and two females


If you are short of males, you can have more females on pitch but not vice-versa.
