The Club
began in the early 1990's as Highfield Basketball Club, playing at Houghton Leisure centre. Since that time we have had
a number of home venues (Whitburn CA, Biddick School, Sandhill View, and Farringdon Community Sports College), and have
run anything from one to 3 male and one female teams, including at various times junior teams in the Newcastle Eagles
organised Central Venue Leagues.
One or two of our notable successes are as follows:
