Lee Dickson re-joined Newcastle Falcons in September 2024 as a skills coach on a consultancy basis, working predominantly with the club’s scrum-halves.

The former Falcons, Northampton, Bedford and England scrum-half combines the role with his duties as master in charge of rugby at Barnard Castle School.

Dickson came through Newcastle Falcons’ academy and played 49 times for the first team before joining Northampton Saints, where he made more than 250 appearances, winning the Premiership title and playing in a European Champions Cup final.
