Brett Connon extends Newcastle Falcons stay

Having recently kicked the winning penalty in their Gallagher Premiership away win at Wasps, fly-half Brett Connon has signed a new two-year contract with Newcastle Falcons.

 

 

The 22-year-old has made 16 first team appearances since rising through the club’s academy, saying: “It’s great to have it all sorted.

 


“I love being at Newcastle, I feel like I’m learning every day in a really positive environment and that I will be given opportunities on merit.

 


“I’m happy to commit my future here and I look forward to developing further as part of this fantastic group.”

 

Connon’s rise to the Falcons first team squad saw him as part of the Ireland Under-20s team which defeated England Under-20s at Newcastle’s Kingston Park ground back in 2016, while this season has seen him starting for the Falcons in the Heineken Champions Cup, Gallagher Premiership and Premiership Rugby Cup.
