BUCKS TOUCH

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.
