A bitter sweet day today working with my good mate @Jonnomason85 for the last time (for now...) @ThunderRugby
Jon has put a huge amount of work into this club to really help lay the foundations for our future success.
Thanks for everything mate!

Todd has been the captain of the Academy for the past two seasons and deservedly so. He is the epitome of a Thunder Academy player - effort, no excuses and tough as they come!!

Congratulations Todd, his family and all involved in his journey.

[Newcastle Thunder @ThunderRugby]

Ahead of a 1st Team debut tomorrow, we were delighted that Todd’s parents could present him with his jersey earlier.

A big well done to all of his coaches back at his community club @SeatonRangersRL

Who wants to wish our U19 academy captain the best of luck?

#ThunderAcademy

[Michael Heap @mpheap1990]

First step on his journey into being a match official within the professional game!

Matty is a fantastic young man, from a smashing family, who puts his all into everything he does.

A key member of our academy who has the courage to follow his own path.

Good luck mate

[Newcastle Thunder Academy @ThunderRugbyAC]

Great to see @MattyLynn6 is making his League 1 debut as a touch judge on Sunday in the @CoventryBears game, Matty has been on our academy following a match officials pathway, proving that academies can not only produce the next players but the next officials too #Pathway

[Michael Heap @mpheap1990]

Great news for the club and the whole of @NorthEastRL !!

A strong and productive academy is an integral part of our future success as a club and region.

Congratulations to all involved.

@JasonPayne8 @conorfitz9813 @ben_pointer15 @liam_mcavoy @EvanSimons_9 It didn’t. @Dannynicko6 had to step in and save the day.

Strictly no backs involved.

Ev “backs are always rubbish anyways. Don’t need em. This play guaranteed tries without em”

[Michael Heap @mpheap1990]

@EvanSimons_9 @conorfitz9813 @liam_mcavoy @JasonPayne8 Rules are rules. No backs involved. 😂

PDP built into comm. calendar so no clashes & every kid can attend - totally open access. Normal scoring system + rewards for often unrewarded aspects. Feedback = Kids more explorative & less pressured
