Mid-Western Regional Council and Mudgee Touch Football are hosting the annual NSW Touch Football Country Championships at Glen Willow Regional Sporting Complex this Saturday and Sunday.
The NSW Touch Football Country Championships is a representative event conducted by the NSW Touch Association for the purpose of Country Affiliates; the competition has been conducted for the past three decades and continues to be a great stepping-stone toward representative pathway success.

The venue itself is of the highest quality and adds further prestige to the Country Championships Event”.
