FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Tag rugby excites students and meets government targets

September 11, 2007

Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK

The government is proposing a second hour of physical exercise a week for students in the UK as a part of the national curriculum.

Tag rugby, the same as normal rugby without the tackling, is quickly growing in popularity in primary and secondary schools across the UK.

This coincides with the popularity of professional and national rugby, especially during six nations and world cup competitions.

The game is active, fast moving and can have up to 30 boys and girls playing at a time. The game is a non-contact version of rugby. Each player wears a Velcro belt around their waist with two flags that can be pulled off when that player has the ball. This then counts as a tackle.

The game can be set up on any playing field, sports hall or playground with minimal equipment needed.

One of the leading suppliers of tag rugby equipment is NBS Rugby of South Wirral. Their website is www.nbsrugby.co.uk.

This is where Buyers Guide helps the UK public sector. There are dozens of companies offering sports equipment listed on the Buyers Guide website.

Buyers Guide has been helping private companies get access to government contracts since 1996. With over 5,000 company listings on www.buyersguide.co.uk of specific products and services targeting public sector work, Buyers Guide is an easy solution for helping government buyers find qualified suppliers.

Companies listed on Buyers Guide range from multinationals to sole traders, but all have the goal of working on public sector contracts. These include working with schools, colleges, universities, local councils, ministry of defense, NHS, housing authorities, and government funded non-profit agencies.

The advantage that Buyers Guide offers is that the company “profile” on their website is written to specifically answer the pre-qualification questions from public sector buyers. This usually includes information like; previous work with other government bodies, years in business, industry qualifications or certifications like ISO 9002, testimonials from clients, government awards like investors in people, confirmation of equal opportunity employer status and specific contact details.

The Buyers Guide “profile” system allows government procurement specialists to quickly find companies that have government experience, the pre-qualification standards and a willingness to work with the public sector in one place saving time, effort and ultimately money.
