Bucks
Touch all started with the Ladies section some ten years ago
and they were historically one of the best teams in Singapore, formed
from teachers and students at United World College (UWC). The prime
movers at that time were Shane and Karen Morris, both teachers at
UWC. The ladies section has regrouped in the last year and recently
has had two teams up and running again – the Margaritas and
the Mojitos.
Indeed the first ever Bucks men’s team in the
Asian championships was a Masters team that featured three girls
from UWC! The Brewerkz barrel was tapped slightly before the final
game on that occasion, as we were keen participants but not the
most competitive! However, paying strength grew and in 2005, the
“Undertakers” won the Asian Club Championships, Masters
Division.
We continue to play in the Summer and National
Touch Leagues and play pretty much every week both on Saturdays
and Wednesdays. A good number go on tours with the club to places
such as Hong Kong, Kula Lumpur and Shanghai.
