I thought that too. At school they play tag up to the end of primary Y6 but at the rugby clubs they start contact earlier.

I wonder if it's something to do with the risk and suing the school if something happens Tried to persuade son to try out for local rugby club but he's not interested, my brother has played since he was 8 (nearly 30 years) and has had several broken bones, his nose will never be straight again and he's loved every minute! Son is not remotely sporty though.
