Malta, with its ideal weather, excellent facilities, and friendly rugby community, is the perfect destination for your rugby tour.

The tournament kicks off with a lively social gathering, designed to break the ice and set the right mood. Enjoy delicious food and three pints of the local brew as you mingle with fellow rugby enthusiasts, creating bonds to set the right mood for the event.
On Saturday, the tournament takes center stage with shortened games played in 15s format for teams aged 35 years and older. Each team participates in exciting matches with 10 minutes each way. Over the course of the afternoon, teams typically play between 3 to 5 games. The action-packed day concludes with an on-pitch presentation and, of course, the customary 3rd half including snack food and some pints.
In the evening, we provide a warm-up venue. Here, you’ll be treated to a delightful spread of food and three pints, fueling your energy for the night ahead and ready to hit St Julian’s in fancy dress, where rugby gentlemen in their creative costumes become the celebrities of Malta’s nightlife quarter for one unforgettable evening.
