About us

The Ireland Touch Association is the official governing body for Touch on the island of Ireland. We are proud to be responsible for organising and promoting this exciting and fast-paced sport in our country.  We believe that Touch is a sport for everyone, regardless of age, gender, or ability. We strive to promote the values of teamwork, respect, and fair play within our community.

The Ireland Touch Association was first founded in 2007 by a group of ex rugby players. Our ambition is to further the growth of this sport within Ireland. In 2008, the Federation of International Touch approved the ITA's application to feature this sport in Ireland.

The Ireland Touch Association is a non-profit organisation. The goal is to provide everyone with a safe way of playing touch, and to show the fun side of this non-physical sport.
