About the Event
A popular day out for participating companies, their teams and supporters; spectators and families alike, the Zurich Corporate Touch 6s is a fun-filled community day with plenty to see and do. It has grown from an 8 team tournament in 2012 to 32 teams which is testament to the accessibility of the sport. Touch is a very easy game to learn which involves minimal contact so anyone can play, regardless of age, gender or ability.
The tournament aims to bring together businesses from across the region for some healthy corporate competition, and does a good job of helping to shake off office inactivity too! Find the super hero’s in your office and sign up today!
And remember, the measure of a superhero is always his (corporate) nemesis…

It was the first-time Deloitte participated and we were really pleased. The event ran very smoothly and the matches were played in a good spirit. We liked the 3 men and 3 women format for the mixed teams – makes for a very inclusive team and game.
Zurich have been the proud title sponsor of this event since it started in 2012. It’s been amazing to see how the quality and attendance of this event has grown and this is a true testament of it’s success and popularity.
Bask in the sun soaking up the atmosphere, or enter your company into the tournament for some fitness and a great laugh with your colleagues.
The event just gets better and better! A lot more teams, more people and the venue was fantastic.
Congratulations on a very well organized Corporate 6s: it’s inspiring to see the event go from strength to strength – just as it did in Hong Kong 20+ years ago. Clearly everyone was enjoying themselves, both on the pitch and in the various areas of shade, near the food and drinks stands and on the Terrace.
We’ve been involved for a good few years now but next year we will bring down some more family members to support – it is such a great family event with lots of entertainment for the kids. The after match celebrations was an excellent addition this year – a great day overall.
It’s great to see how much the tournament has grown. More and more families come along, more things for the kiddies to do, it’s more like a carnival type atmosphere now, but with touch rugby as well.
The extracurricular activities for the kids and grown ups are excellent. We also want to commend the referees. They were superb, better than last year as more experienced, and great feel for the game on how strict to be at the different levels of competition. Well done on a fantastic day out!
So excited to see the teams really enjoying themselves, on and off the pitch. Great sportsmanship, fantastic team spirit and companies really getting behind their staff in terms of setting themselves up for a fabulous corporate family day out. Thanks to all involved, especially our sponsors and teams! Can’t wait for 2019 – the 8th edition!
In March 2108 the Beehive team took part in the UAE Corporate Touch 6s tournament. Such a fantastic community event to be involved in. Although on this occasion we didn’t win, it was a fantastic day out with the Beehive team. Well done to all teams who took part on the day, we look forward to the rematch next year!
Thank you for such an AWESOME event on Friday. We have had so much positive feedback we are looking forward to participating again in 2109!
