“All up, 4500 kids between the ages of 10 and 16 years are playing rugby league between the months of May and June in the Knights Knockout competition.”
Grand final matches kick off at 9.30am at Hunter Stadium, with the day concluding at 5pm. Players from the Newcastle Knights including Kurt Gidley, Beau Scott, Tariq Sims and Jeremy Smith are scheduled to attend between 11am until 5pm.
