30 Jan 2020
It was great to welcome back OB Alex Tait to Barney as he celebrates his testimonial season with the Newcastle Falcons!
Alex was the VIP at a Burns Night Supper held at the school with Scotland international and Falcons teammate Jon Welsh and former Scotland international Scott Macleod joining in the celebration.
The evening formed part of a series of charitable events that have been organised for over the course of the year for Alex’s testimonial season, all of which are supporting three charities: Restart, Children North East and Alzheimer’s Society.
Alex, 31, was awarded a testimonial season by the Newcastle Falcons in recognition of his more than 10 years’ service to the club
The versatile player, who can play full-back, wing or centre, was part of the Falcons’ academy and joined the professional ranks in 2007, going on to become one of the club’s most-capped players with more than 250 first-team appearances.
We are incredibly proud of you Alex, and wish you and the Falcons all the best for the remainder of the season!
