Congratulations to all of our incredible Whitley Bay Rockcliff RFC volunteers who were recognised at the Northumberland RFU Value the Volunteer & End of Season Celebration evening. 🎉🏉

A special mention to our nominated Unsung Heroes:

👏 Adam Jeffrey, Lindsay Hill & David Hill – for their incredible work with our U6s, creating an inclusive and supportive environment where every child can enjoy rugby.

👏 Simon Tindall – for his dedication to our U15s, supporting player development, welfare and progression both on and off the pitch.

👏 Tony Hansen – recognised for more than a decade of coaching and helping countless young players successfully transition into senior rugby.

👏 Eric Brooks – for his tireless behind-the-scenes work, including the successful return of the Super 10s tournament, preserving club history and keeping members connected through his match reporting.

👏 Wayne Beckett – a true club person whose contribution spans coaching, playing, walking rugby, maintenance and supporting every corner of the club.

It was also a great night for our Women's & Girls section, with our Women's team receiving their Women's NC3 North league winners trophy and our U16 Girls being presented with their Development League winners trophy following a fantastic season.

Congratulations to all of our nominees, players and volunteers. Your commitment, passion and hard work are what make Rockcliff such a special club. ❤️💛

This weekend a party from Rockcliff Rugby Club are undertaking the 3rd bi-annual trip to the Western Front Battlefields of Northern France & Belgium. Two previous tours, in 2022 & 2024, saw the graves/memorials of 11 of our club members who fought and died during WW1 visited, with short ceremonies of thanks and remembrance paid at each site. On this year’s tour visits will be made to the final resting place of the remaining 3 members not yet honoured by the club, ensuring that Rockcliff will have fulfilled its commitment to visit them all. Full details of the forthcoming trip can be found on the ‘Rockcliff History Society’ page. ‘
