3. Social Hockey


Tuesday night social games and skills sessions are at the Royal Grammar School (NE2 4DX) from 2030 until 2130. We run through the year, during the school terms, but not every week, contact us for updates for the current season.

If you're on foot, come out of Jesmond Metro station & past JPC, if the gates straight ahead of you are open, head through them and straight up, between the two buildings. Turn right and then left round the Performing Arts Centre towards the pitch. If the gates aren't open, turn right & walk up Eskdale Terrace, keeping the school on your left, then left up Lambton Road, & left again at the top, with the park on your right. At the end of that road, there's the underpass towards town. Next to it, the road bends to the left, & that leads to the top gate. Walk through there & you'll see the pitch ahead of you. The top pitch entrance should be open, up between the car park & the shed. If not, the bottom entrance is along the path between the hockey pitch & the rugby pitch, then round to the left.

Driving:
From the Coast Road, turn up Osborne Road, then left at the lights, onto Clayton Road. Take the last left before the end of the road, on a speed bump, you'll see the park ahead of you.
At the end of that road you'll see the underpass towards town, next to that the road leads round to the left, & to the top gates for the school. The barrier should be up, follow the road in & park anywhere. The top pitch entrance is next to the parking spaces on the left, if it's not open turn right and take the path round the pitch to the other end.
