EAGLETAG is a non-tackling game with limited contact and the rules are designed to encourage this. Passing, catching, tagging, evasive and kicking are the skills utilised in EAGLETAG. It is played over two 20 minutes periods with eight players from each team on the field. 

EAGLETAG is a fast-paced exciting sport that can be enjoyed by male, female and mixed teams of all athletic abilities from the ages of 6 – 106. Oztag competitions are currently run midweek after school/work in both summer and winter. Many friends, family and work colleagues form teams primarily for fun and fitness. The attraction of Oztag is that there is no training; no volunteer duties and team coaches aren’t required for seasonal games.

EAGLETAG also offers involvement at a representative or elite level – State Cup and National championships in a range of age divisions. Junior divisions from under 8 to 16, and adult divisions in Men, Women & Mixed Open. Men’s divisions like over 30, 35, 40, 45 & 50 have become very popular at Representative level. Internationally, Australia is leading the way, but countries like New Zealand and Pacific Islands, Ireland, United Kingdom, South Africa, US and Japan are all at various developmental stages in the form of Rugby Tag or Rugby League tag.
