Club



Colours


The original club colours consisted of a red shirt with a white sash, white shorts and red and white socks. This strip was worn by the Wallsend Rovers, the original club name in 1887. The presence of red and white has been continuous, with evolving designs and styles always involving the use of these colours.


Ground


Wallsend Football Club is based at The Gardens Sporting Complex, which was formerly used by the Newcastle Breakers until their demise. The ground has been developed into a multi-use greyhound and sports venue, not merely a site for football. The previous capacity to hold 11,000 spectators has dropped to one of 2,000, with 1,100 of those being seated.


Rivalries


Wallsend Football Club's principal rivals are the nearby clubs of West Wallsend FC and Adamstown Rosebud FC, against whom they have been playing matches for over a century.

Wallsend's nearest rival in geographic terms is the club Plattsburg Marylands FC.
