 The games used to be played at the Metro Radio Arena (in the days when it had an ice pad) in front of crowds numbering in the hundreds (and occasionally, the thousands) and often in the same programme as the Newcastle Vipers professional ice hockey team.For many years the Club ran a 'Stick Training' session in the University Sports Centre.The aim of the session was to enhance the stick handling and fitness skills of players without the expense of valuable ice time.
