Whitley Bay Rockcliff continue preseason preparations with Seghill friendly
Whitley Bay Rockcliff are readying themselves for the new campaign...
With the RFU deferring the start of the league season until the end of September, owing to the impact of the summer drought on pitches across the country, Whitley Bay Rockcliff and Seghill RFC arranged a squad session to give their players some valuable game time before competitive action begins in earnest in two weeks’ time.
Rockcliff are preparing for the coming campaign in Counties 2 North East (North), and Seghill for the CANDY League Division 2 (North).
The friendly saw a good turnout at Welfare Park in Seghill, with a decent attendance for a preseason workout. Both sides were able to put their preseason training into practice, with some entertaining running rugby on display, and unsurprisingly, two backs were given the best player awards in the clubhouse afterwards: Sam Owens from Rockcliff and James Wafer from Seghill.
Both clubs are keen for new players to join them ahead of the new campaign, and anyone interested can contact Rockcliff via [email protected] or 0191 2513704 and Seghill via [email protected] or 0191 2370414.
