Season Competitions
During winter we compete at Fawkner Park (Pasley Street South, South Yarra), in Men's and Women's divisions. For Mixed, we play in our very own mixed competition at Monash University (Clayton Campus) which runs on Friday nights. Over Summer we play at Elwood Park (Head St, Elwood) as well as in our own competition, run at Monash University (Clayton Campus). After the game, it's usually off to the pub for a well deserved beer.
University Games
Southern Challenge (formerly known as Southern University Games; SUG), is held in the mid year break. It's where universities from all around Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania get together to compete in multiple sports and not to mention socialise, drink and party every night! But of course, it's just the lead-up to the Australian University Games (AUG), where you'll not only test your touch skills against the best universities in Australia, you also experience a fun-filled week of party after party.
Training
The Monash University Touch Club will have several training opportunities throughout the year. Club trainings will be held once weekly throughout the year to develop teams for the weekly competitions. However, for about 10 weeks prior to each University Games (SUG & AUG), separate trainings will also be held weekly for those selected in these teams. During peak touch season we also run a fitness ‘Boot Camp’ training session. Training with Monash Touch provides a fantastic opportunity to develop the skills and 'know how' required to play, for everyone from novice to elite, and of course develops solid friendships with all involved.
Social Activities
All through the year the Monash Touch holds bbq's, pub crawls, trivia nights, presentation nights and even training weekends away. Uni Games is also recognised by all those who have experienced it as some of the best times in their life, where great friends are made and good times had by all.
