In Yorktown, Virginia (USA) they hold a Shagging on the Riverwalk Beach Music Concert Series. It runs for 10 weeks in the Summer. They have musicians play, and also do Shag (dancing) lessons : )
Hope this is what you were referring to :) I'd love to win a nappy :D
Here is my answer!!!
Shagging describes the act of catching fly balls in the outfield when not involved in actual baseball games. Pitchers may do this during batting practice before games. In the Major League Baseball Home Run Derby, children are recruited as shaggers in order to field balls that do not go out as a home run. Also, during batting practice anywhere, "shagging balls" describes the act of catching and gathering up balls that are thrown back to the pitching area, usually by a player standing near the pitcher.
This game is from USA

Shagging can also refer to the act of two people doing the shag dance. For an example is the Carolina Shag which is a six count partner dance done mostly to moderate tempo music.
During the dance the upper body and hips hardly move as the legs do convoluted kicks and fancy footwork. The lead is the center of attention, and the follow's steps either mirror the lead's or mark time while the lead shows off with spins and other gyrations.
Shag is the state dance of North Carolina and South Carolina, and is still popular amongst residents of both states. Shag itself is a very broad term that denotes a number of swing dances that originated during the early part of the 20th century.
Shagging is differant in America!

Shagging- Carolina Shag is a DANCE!!!! :) or is it the baseball one of catching balls in the outfield?
shagging is when the ball is hit into the outfield during practice of American baseball
shag - a fabric with long coarse nap; "he bought a shag rug"
cloth, fabric, textile, material - artifact made by weaving or felting or knitting or crocheting natural or synthetic fibers; "the fabric in the curtains was light and semitransparent"; "woven cloth originated in Mesopotamia around 5000 BC"; "she measured off enough material for a dress"
Shagging- a type of 6 count partnered dance similar to swing dance done to fast tempo music like jazz. Originated in the USA in the 30's/40's during big band era (first known of in 1936). Still the state dance of North and South Carolina, USA where it is still practiced. Originally known as the "Carolina Shag" and was a derivative of the Carolina Jitterbug.
Shagging- a term from the USA used in Baseball and is commonly known as "shagging flies" where flyballs are hit into the outfield to be caught./fielded back towards the pitching mound. Usually done as practice or warmup prior to a match. Any balls hit into the outfield that are not homeruns are fielded by "shaggers" and returned in such a fashion.
So shaggiing in the US can denote shagging on the dancefloor or shagging on the baseball field, lucky the're not actually shagging as in Australian slang, lol!
Had a bit of searching and came up with this - Shagging describes the act of catching fly balls in the outfield when not involved in actual baseball games.
What an interesting topic lol!
'Shagging' in Southern US is when a couple are dancing the 'Shag Dance', similar to swing dancing. The annual Shag Dance Championships are held in Myrtle Beach, Sth Carolina. Very interesting to watch!
Shagging is the state dance of North and South Carolina. Lucky them hey! lol
The dance originated in the 1930's and is part of dance competitions across the united states.
Won't my husband be in for a shock when I ask him for a shag tonight!!!
The only other shags I know of beside the aussie one and the bird is the dance.
When we were younger we were obsessed with a movie called shag that had a lot of ties to the dance and competitions held in Carolina I think.
In America (USA) shagging means catching balls in the outfield during practice time or when having a bat. (except for game time- baseball) eg. pitchers usually catch the balls and pitch them back at the batters during practice, whereas obviously during game time they dont catch the balls.
In the US shagging means dancing :)

Shagging is a term in the US for a particular type of dancing, the Carolina shag. I found Jekyll Is has one of the biggest shagging events.
Thanks for the giggles, you're awesome and a great warm up for the hunt.
Hi Lesley!
Shagging (lol) is different in the USA (predominantly in the south) - apparently it is a form of dancing (!) and is held on the beach at night :)

Well, I'll be hey! Turns out, in America, Shagging is a particular type of dance, like swing dancing. Unlike the shagging we know, described by Urban Dictionary as 'when a man drives his erect penis into a woman's vagina'. Ahhh, got to laugh.
They seem to shag all over the place in the States but the biggest events are held in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
