I98FM Premier League Round 2 Wrap
Wollongong Touch’ inaugural All Abilities program is officially underway, with participants taking to the field for the first time under the watchful eye of experienced Wollongong Devils Coaches. 5 participants from The Disability Trust enjoyed touch specific skills and drills, with their prior game knowledge from the Score Dragons proving very useful.
“It was great to kickstart the All Abilities program, the participants were extremely skillful already so I think it will be a quick process getting them used to Touch Football rules”, WTA Vice President Tim Robinson said. “I think the number of participants will grow each week, it was a fantastic starting point.”
The All Abilities program, features ahead of the I98FM Wollongong Touch Premier League competition, with Round 2 of the Men’s and Women’s competition providing some intense battles. 2 draws in the Men’s, with Wests and Dapto 4-4, and Corrimal and Shoalhaven 6-6, unable to be separated.
