No better way to pay tribute to Tony. We are totalling up everything raised and will let you know the grand total

The teams are all set for tonight's memorial session for Tony Burns.

We have been blow away with the generosity of Tony's friends so far and have already exceeded our expectations for raising of funds for the Alzheimer's Association.

Looking forward to seeing all of you later and the scoring of first class tries on the wing for Tony.

Message us for our bank details for your donation or bring the cash down tonight. After the session we will tally up what we have raised😃

✨World Mental Health Day ✨

Mental Health is still seen as a taboo subject, even though 1 in every 4 people in the UK are affected by a mental health condition.

REMEMBER It's okay not to be okay! Mental health is not always easy to talk about, but remember you are not alone.

More people than ever are experiencing the effects of Mental Health impacting their daily lives. So do your bit...Check in on your mates

• Reach out – a conversation, text or call goes a long way
• Listen, don’t judge
• Do something together

The benefits of physical activity and being part of a team play a big part in the releasing of endorphins to improve self esteem.

Book a slot and come along to one of our sessions to experience the uplift that being part of a team brings.

Why play Touch rugby?
Touch rugby is a fantastic way to keep fit or get fit, without really thinking about it. It's a lot easier to play a game with your mates for an hour than run for an hour.

Blackadders Touch are based at @rockcliffrugby and are @englandtouch and @o2touch affiliated. What does this mean for you?

Means that you have access to top class facilities with one of the few Rugby 365 AGP Pitches in the north east of England (all weather training guaranteed 🌧☃️), flood lite pitches 💡 ✅, and an experienced managerial team to make things run smoothly 👩‍💼👨‍💼.

You can rest assured that we are Covid compliant, have completed our risk assessments and have our protocols in place to ensure that training goes ahead in a safe environment:

📲QR code for registration for track and trace
🚷 One way system for accessing and leaving the pitch
🖐 🏉🧴⌚️ Sanitising of hands, balls and equipment every 15 minutes!
🥤 Bring your own water bottle
🖐➡️⬅️🖐 Social distancing off the pitch

Check out some of our pics from our happy members 🏉🤗
