There is no exact record of when touch football was developed, but the first official game was held in Australia in 1968. Touch football is a non-tackle way to enjoy playing football for both males and females.

Touch football (Rugby league) was played informally in Australia from the early 1920s.

It was first created as a formal sport in 1968 when Bob Dyke and Ray Vawdon founded the South Sydney Touch Football Club.
