Saturday, 01/17/09: San Diego, California, USA: Mandy Wilson charges forward during a mixed game of touch rugby at Torrey Highlands Park in Del Mar. An informal group of players meet every Saturday morning at 11am for games. The sport of Touch Rugby is a fast paced, exciting version of the full contact game that is gaining popularity in San Diego. As the name suggests, the "touch" version of it is not a full contact game - merely touching the player who is carrying the ball stops play. Pick-up games can be found most Saturdays in the park and on Sunday mornings at the beach in Del Mar or Sunday afternoons in South Mission Beach. Wilson also plays with a more formal team, The San Diego Surfers - an all women's team based at Robb Field in Ocean Beach
