This Friday (25 August) Edinburgh Rugby travel south to Netherdale, the home of Gala RFC, for a joint open training session with Newcastle Falcons. Here’s everything you need to know!
Running from 12 noon to 3.30pm at the famous Borders ground (Nether Rd, Galashiels, TD1 3HE) fans can watch both teams be put through their paces while enjoying plenty of community activity on the day to keep the whole family entertained.
Fans can sign up for free HERE. Please note: Fans that turn up having not signed up will still be admitted, however registering helps us manage the day appropriately for an estimated attendance.
With a number of former Edinburgh stars in the Newcastle ranks – including Murray McCallum and Cammy Hutchison – it’s a brilliant opportunity to see both new and old faces, with plenty of time for autograph signing and selfies following the training session!
Check out the open day event timeline below:
The open session is the perfect event for the good summer weather, so why not bring along the whole family to meet the Edinburgh squad. Please include a message in your sign-up if you require accessible parking at the event.
