Cayman Touch Rugby Association

Mourant's sponsorship provides vital funding for this thriving sport, which attracts players from across the island and internationally. The Cayman Touch Association (CTA) hosts a number of tournaments throughout the year, including the Cup of Nations, the Mourant International Touch Tournament and the Touch Super Leagues. The Cup of Nations was was held in March 2019. The highly anticipated 2019 Mourant International Touch Tournament took place on 1 June 2019 at the Truman Bodden Sports Complex.

Investing in the next generation is vital for the long term health of touch rugby and therefore, the Junior Touch Program is arguably the most important program that the CTA runs. The Program aims to give junior players the opportunity to play in matches and to develop core skills of the game. The Association also endeavours to increase the number of junior players in the Cayman Islands. The Programme runs from November to May and consists of coaching sessions as well as Junior Touch Tournaments every 3 weeks, on Friday evenings from 7pm-9pm, at the sports field at Camana Bay.

Cayman Islands Managing Partner, Hayden Isbister said:

"We're really pleased that our partnership with the CTA is helping to grow the sport of Touch Rugby in Cayman, especially among the younger generation. Rugby in all formats is well regarded as sport driven by a set of clear values and as a business we share these, including fair play, team ethic and respect for others."

Scott McCarty of Cayman Touch Association added:

"We are thrilled at the formation of our partnership with Mourant. Our Association has worked very hard since inception three years ago to establish broad foundations for the sport in Cayman, which encompass Men's, Women's, and Kids' Touch, annual international and domestic one and two day tournaments, domestic leagues, an effective representative program, and player and referee development programs. Mourant's support in the form of financial, marketing and administrative assistance will be invaluable in a number of ways as we seek to further build upon these foundations. Our partnership with a prestigious international law firm such as Mourant also provides our relatively new Association with standing within the Cayman and international sporting community, so this really is great news for us!"
