The Rugby League World Cup has teamed up with Wor Flags to create a display at St James' Park when England open the tournament with a tough match against Samoa.
Wor Flags, a donation funded group that creates and curates flags and banners at Newcastle United matches and has also worked with Sam Fender, has signed up to produce displays for the tournament, held in England from October. The Rugby League World Cup has donated to the group, an amount which will allow them to fund more displays after the tournament finishes
The group will produce displays for both Samoa and England when the teams face each other on Saturday October 15 at St James' Park, including a giant St George's Cross in the Gallowgate End, the same stand where Wor Flags first launched six years ago. The Samoan flag display will take place opposite in the Leazes End.
