Stilbaai Touchies is South Africa's largest and most prestigious Touch Rugby event. The tournament dates back to 1978 when a group of holidaymakers in the small coastal town got together to formalise all the social games that used to take place into a one off tournament.
In years to come Provincial and National players who holidayed in the area often stretched their legs and provided the growing crowds huge excitement. Players such as Theuns Stoffberg, Rob Louw, Bertie de Wet, Dawie Snyman and Danie Gerber regularly took part.
And so the legend of Stilbaai Touchies was born!
The next few years saw an influx of teams coming from all parts of the country. Made up of Social groups of Touch players and more regular players from afar a field as Clifton Beach and Stellenbosch and Pretoria Universities, the standard of touch improved and it wasn't long before things became very competitive.
An important date to remember is the 26th December - Stilbaai's 30th Anniversary. “What?” you say. Yes, this year will see the 30th Touch Rugby Tournament being held on this notorious beach front. This year the Hot Summer of Touch is going to be massive.
