Juniors will be starting on November 3, with the seniors starting on November 4.

Boorowa Touch Association member, Lucy Woods, said it was shaping up to be a strong competition.

"Numbers are looking higher for junior touch this season compared to last," she said.

"And we have 11 senior touch teams for the season, which is the usual.

"Senior teams this year are required to have two junior players (aged 12-16).

"If there are juniors looking for a team, they can contact us via Facebook and we can put them in a team.

"Parents can register for junior touch by going to https://profile.mysideline.com.au/register/ and searching for 'Boorowa Junior Touch'."
