Falcons U18s at home on Saturday

Friday 19 January 2024 Written by: Mark Smith

Newcastle Falcons Under-18s have named their side for Saturday’s home game against Midlands West Under-18s (formerly Worcester Warriors).

The Premiership Academy League game is a 2pm kick-off at Kingston Park.

Entry is free for all supporters, with the East Stand’s Tap & Tackle bar open for drinks and refreshments.

Newcastle’s last home game a fortnight ago saw them beating Leicester Tigers 26-19, although they followed that result up with an away loss at Sale Sharks last Sunday.
