After a spectacular debut, The Big One is back as Newcastle Falcons take their Gallagher Premiership Rugby fixture against Sale Sharks to St James' Park on Saturday 23rd March (KO 5:30pm).
The home of Newcastle United played host to a gripping contest last season in front of a club record crowd of 30,174 and this year, with the Falcons nearest rivals providing the opposition, they want to make this year's event even bigger!
It will kick off a run of mouth-watering rugby action in the city in 2019 and will once again be part of a huge weekend for North East rugby with the annual Land Rover Premiership Rugby Cup again taking place in the morning at Kingston Park.
Full details and tickets are available from here.
Newcastle Falcons - The Big One 2019
On Boxing Day and in the spirit of the Story of Christmas, Three Wise Men (which is debatable) decided to swim in the Holy Waters of the North Sea. In temperatures approaching Absolute Zero, Paul Jobson, Lawrence Fletcher and Chris McDine braved the cold to raise money for Brain Tumour Research. With a collection at the Boxing Day game at Rockcliff they managed to raise a grand total of £510. All three would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone for their generosity.
