End of an era at Wallsend (Federal Pk) last Saturday when NAWA (N'cle And Wallsend Amateur) played their last game. (O35 Sat C's)
They lost 2-3 to Morisset and finished 8th. Dale C informed me last week that he wasn't continuing and nobody was keen to either play on or take up any committee positions.

NAWA was the club where quite a few of us at Cookers who started the new incarnation of the club first consolidated playing for NAWA between 94 to 97 when Cooks Hill Utd was founded (Dec 97)
There was a lot of recrutiting that use happen on the Rowdies Hill for that club (NAWA) back in those days.
There were hopes at one stage of trying to build something out at Bill Potts Field (end of Creek Rd) but efforts (mostly mine) to get anything concrete lease wise from Gretley Colliery or anyone else (NCC etc) was fruitless.
That plus quite a few of us lived in town meant there was a need to look for something more local in the end.

Well done Dale C and all the NAWA lads for carrying the torch this long.
