Beach Tag is exactly as it sounds. Tag Rugby played on a beach. The entire competition takes place in one dayand runs from around midday until later in the afternoon, depending on the tides.
A Beach Tag team comprises of five players instead of seven as in normal Tag Rugby (minimum of two female players playing). Typically a team will play 4-5 games (10-15 min each) in a day before playoffs. On sand, this is quite the task! Rest of the laws of tag apply the same as with the regular form of the game.
