Four competitions (men’s, women’s, mixed and junior) across 13 divisions compete on Tuesday and Thursday nights.
More than 100 teams have registered for the 2014-15 season.
One team who is having a perfect season is Eastend.
The team is made up of 13 and 14-year-olds, and have been playing together for the past few seasons.
They have won every game in the men’s C-grade competition and have done so by showing plenty of skill.
Eastend took on another young side in Wombats 13s last week.
In a tight match, the scores were 4-2 in favour of Eastend at half-time before the boys in green ran away with it in the later stages of the second half.
Adam O’Connell scored five touchdowns for Eastend in the 9-5 win.
In the men’s A-grade competition, defending champions Federal Hotel Fruitbats just have their noses in front of The Ori.
Fruitbats are on 18 points with The Ori one point behind.
In B-grade, the Wolf Pack – a team made up of Mudgee Wombats players – remain undefeated and top their division.
In the women’s competition, Rapid Plumbing and Gas had a narrow victory over Ulan Water, 7-5, to remain in front of the women’s A-grade.
In the top of the table clash in the women’s B-grade competition, JB’s just got the better of The Haircase, winning 3-2.
The mixed division is also tight with A-grade leaders Property Shop having a 6-all draw with Chris Smith Refrigeration and Air Con.
Down 5-2 at half-time, Property Shop fought back to get the scores levelled.
Courthouse Cannibals and Blowes lead mixed B-grade on 23 and 21 points respectively, and Knights Bricklaying have their noses in front in C-grade.
In D-grade, Nortons were pushed all the way by JB’s, winning 5-4 in their match. Nortons continued to lead the division.
Meanwhile, there was excitement at Glen Willow on Thursday night with the big man in the red and white suit making an early appearance for Christmas.
Santa Claus stopped by to wish the Mudgee Touch Association players a Merry Christmas and to give out some small gifts.
