Blaze Touch

🔥 BLAZE TOUCH – TUESDAY ROUND‑UP 🔥

Another brilliant Tuesday night full of classic Blaze energy, big numbers, big smiles, and everyone bringing that trademark buzz that makes these sessions so good. The vibe was high from the first whistle to the last.

💪 Fitness Crew Appreciation
Massive well‑done to the fitness team who came down early and put in the graft. And a huge thank‑you to Matt for organising.

🎉 Welcome Back, Mills!
Mills has officially returned after working in Norway on a cruise ship, and it was so good to have her back on the pitch.

🟡 Refereeing Thanks
Big appreciation to Tom and Jules for refereeing tonight. Your calmness and clarity keep everything running smoothly.

🌍 European Youth Touch Championships Shout‑Out
A huge well‑done to everyone who represented their country this weekend, you made Blaze proud.
Adam & Esme Ashley — 🥈 for England Mixed 20
Izzy Jones — 🥇 for England Girls 18
Seren Nurse— 🥉 for Wales Mixed 15 and with our occasional “guest” players Dylan Sharpe and Noah Wheatley also coming away, in a one score loss in the final to a very good French team, with a 🥈 for England B18s and Ffion with a 🥇for the England Mixed 15s …
Congratulations must also go to Lloydie on his Referee upgrade to L3 👏👏👏 🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely incredible achievements by everyone.

👋 Welcome to Andy!
Great to have Andy join us for his first week playing, you slotted in brilliantly.

💛🖤 Blaze through and through 🖤💛

Great to be back and get down to see everyone at Touch on Tuesday - what a fantastic evening to be able to enjoy the summer sun with a cracking group of people.
Thanks to Philippe for opening up and well done to those that did the pre session fitness with Matt 👏👏👏. Thanks to Matt, Bob and Rich for getting the session up and running and to those that jumped in to referee 🙏🙏
Welcome back to Josh after several years away - it was such a nice surprise to see you. Also “thanks” to Isaac for popping along to have a catch up - happy recovery.
Lovely to see Bex back from the recent European Championships in Vichy (Euroselect Womens Open).
We also had Adam (England Mixed 20s) and Seren Nurse (Wales mixed U15s) down doing some final prepping for the upcoming European Youth Touch Championships being held at the University of Warwick (kicks off today).
We would also like to wish our Blaze touch stars Izzy Jones (England 18s Girls), Esme Ashley (England Mixed 20s) all the very best - along with our frequent guests Noah Wheatley (England 18s Boys), Ffion Wheatley (England Mixed 15s) and Dylan (England 18s Boys).
Blaze will also be well represented on the Match official front too with Siâny, Dunc and Lloydie all donning their referee tops to take control of a number of the games.
Go well Blaze 🔥🔥

🔥 What a Night at Blaze! 🔥

What a fantastic turnout at training this week! With enough players to fill two pitches, the energy and enthusiasm from everyone made for a brilliant session.

It was great to see experienced players working alongside newer members, offering guidance, encouragement and support throughout the evening. The teamwork really showed, leading to some fantastic scores and some great passages of play.

We’d like to wish Lewis a safe trip back to the USA as he heads back to start his sophomore year!

The club is growing every week, and it’s amazing to see everyone’s confidence and skills developing together. Whether you’re completely new to touch rugby or have played before, there’s a place for you at Blaze.

Fancy giving it a go?

📍 Malbank Playing Fields
🗓️ Tuesdays
⏰ 6:30–8:00pm

Come along, get involved, and see what it’s all about! 🔥🏉

Great to welcome Louis back to our wonderful touch family on Tuesday night … after, probably, 8 years - as he returns to Nantwich with work , Louis Johnston Hair, and back from knee injury. Thought I would pop in and get a hair cut - Flamin’ chuffed with the cut and thought I would share his booking sight at Tonsorium on Welsh Row:- https://tonsorium.setmore.com?utm_source=in-app&utm_medium=iosapp&utm_campaign=settsharebp
Why not give him a “try” 😉

Further to Hann’s post from Vichy earlier - our intrepid cross border Dunc McMascarenhas has just messaged inform the Scotland camp …
“Key game beat Irish 5-2 then Welsh 7-3 first cap first score. Next up a very young quick looking England.” …
Keep going Musky
🔥🔥

Great first post from Hann Gael in Vichy:-

“It's a day of firsts... 1st ever opening ceremony, 1st ever Touch tournament presenting England and 1st ever international try!”

Great work Hann, keep it going
🔥🔥

Hi everyone

One of our friends has a ticket for tomorrow’s game (at Everton FC) but is ill and can no longer attend.
The sun will be shining and, I am sure, Fiji will be playing their brand of off the cuff ‘aka’ Will Joyneson Rugby 🤣🤣.
There is a group of us going to the game - leaving from Crewe station just after 11.30am. If you would like to join us it is an adult ticket and the ticket has a face value of £40 (seated in the South Upper stand) please make contact below or on 07957416401.
Jules 🔥🔥
PS The train fare is approx. £15 for an open return.

🔥 Blaze Tuesday is Here! 🔥

It's Tuesday, which means it's time for another Blaze training session!

Last week, the rain wasn't enough to stop us, and we still had four teams bringing the energy. This week we're looking to build on that as we continue working on our 3-player drives to move the ball up the pitch quickly and effectively.

We're really starting to see the benefits of consistently practising these patterns, with smoother transitions and stronger 32 shorts and longs on the line. The game is getting faster, everyone's becoming more competitive, and it's brilliant to see the progress being made every week.

Whether you're returning or coming along for the first time, we'd love to see you there. Bring your trainers, plenty of water, and your Blaze spirit! 🔥

See you tonight! Same time, same place. 💙🖤
