With winter having arrived and the days getting shorter, Touch Berlin has headed indoors for Wednesday evenings to play a crazy new sport which will sharpen your ball skills and keep fitness levels sky high for social Touch outdoors at TiB on Saturdays.
Turbo Touch is a cross between basketball and Touch, – it’s a jam-packed, non-contact sport with plenty of action and perfect for all fitness levels and abilities.
Unlike traditional Touch, the oval ball can be passed forwards, or backwards, sideways, any way you like, and the team in possession must put in at least two passes before a touchdown can be scored.
It makes for a high tempo, quick turnover game which can be played on a typical basketball court and sharpens the skills as wayward passes are quickly punished as players zoom up and down the court.
You don't need a background in Touch or either code of rugby to get involved, anyone who has played any team sport can pick up the game quickly.
If you've ever been involved in basketball at even the most basic level you have already got a good start. It's just we play with an oval ball.
Having originated in New Zealand, Turbo Touch is now in it's second year in Berlin, so come down to
Teske Oberschule at Tempelhofer Weg 62 to find out more.
Better to show up early as we start at 20:00 and have to be out by 21:30, which is normally followed by a few social beers.
Further information is available on our site here!

DEUTSCHE FASSUNG:
Mit dem Beginn des Winters und den kürzer werdenden Tagen hat Touch Berlin seine Hallensaison begonnen. Jeden Mittwochabend spielen wir eine verrückte neue Sportart, welche die Ballfähigkeiten schärft und die Fitness verbessert. Von diesem exzellenten Training profitieren alle Spieler, was sich jeden Samstag beim Social Touch auf dem TIB Außengelände zeigt.
Turbo Touch ist ein Mix aus Basketball und Touch, es ist ein vollgepackter, berührungsloser Sport mit viel Aktion und perfekt für Fitness und Koordination.
Im Gegensatz zum traditionellen Touch Football besteht die Möglichkeit dem ovalen Ball nach vorn, nach hinten oder auch zur Seite abzuspielen. Die Richtung spielt keine Rolle. Das Team welches den Ball besitzt, muss den Ball mindestens 3-mal abspielen bevor es Punkten kann.
Das Spiel zeichnet sich durch ein hohes Tempo und schnelle Wechsel aus, welches auf einem Basketballfeld gespielt werden kann. Turbo Touch schärft deine Sinne und unberechenbare Zuspiele werden schnell bestraft indem deine Gegenspieler das Spielfeld besser nutzen und zum Gegenspielzug ausholen.
Man benötigt keine Spielkenntnisse oder Regelverständnisse von Rugby um mitspielen zu können. Jeder der schon einmal eine Teamsportart gespielt hat wird dieses Spiel schnell verstehen. Falls du schon einmal Basketball gespielt hast, wenn auch nur auf einem grundlegenden Niveau, hast du bereits beste Voraussetzungen. Das einzige was dich ein bisschen aus dem Konzept bringen könnte, wäre das wir mit einem ovalen Ball spielen.
Turbo Touch kommt Ursprünglich aus Neuseeland und wird jetzt seit 2 Jahren erfolgreich in Berlin angeboten. Komm vorbei zur Teske Oberschule im Tempelhofer Weg 62 in 10829 Berlin und gewinne eine unvergessliche Erfahrung.
„Wer zu spät kommt den bestraft das Leben“ Wir beginnen um 20 Uhr und müssen die Turnhalle bis spätestens um 21:30 Uhr verlassen. Jede gelungene Trainings- Session lassen wir mit ein paar „Social Beers“ ausklingen.
