Tamworth Touch Association to hold trials for junior representative teams

TTA will hold junior representative trials - originally scheduled for last Monday before the wet weather came - for under 8s to 18s this Monday coming as long as the weather allows it.

"If we get the flooding that's expected we might be pushed back again," TTA committee member Steph Halpin said.

"When we can, we'll make it work and we're hoping we can get a few teams to go away for the junior state cup in February."

The trials come after TTA re-affiliated with NSW Touch this year which opened up the representative pathway.

The association was excited to be able to offer the avenue to the Tamworth Titans representative teams.

"We've got lots of kids playing touch footy, obviously we could always do with more, but there's been some positive interest for our trials," Halpin said.

"We have an expressions of interest form on our Facebook page and we've had heaps of people filling it out."

Halpin said juniors are still able to trial for the teams. They will have to sign up to play in the primary competition or the Wednesday night mixed competition, though.

"They're more than welcome to join up into one of the comps if they haven't already," she said.

"If they haven't put their expression of interest yet, they still can or they can just turn up on the evening and join in."

Anyone interested in signing up can head to the Tamworth Touch Association Facebook page.
