2012 Olympics football at St James' Park

Newcastle hostels offer the perfect accommodation for sports fans heading to the north-east to catch some Olympics action.

It is not long until the London 2012 Olympics get underway and while most tickets are sold out, there are still many available to see football at the St James' Park Sports Direct Arena.

With medal events for both men's and women's teams, there are plenty of games to take in, and Newcastle United's stadium plays host to nine matches, including two quarter-final rounds.

This offers fans a wonderful opportunity to see one of the showpiece events of the Olympics. Football has a historic place in the Games, having been first introduced as a medalled event back in 1908.

Great Britain won the first gold medal and defended the title at the following Olympics. Can they win it again in 2012?

London 2012 Olympics football matches at the St James' Park Sports Direct Arena in Newcastle take place between Thursday July 26th and Saturday August 4th. Tickets cost between £20 and £50.
