Tickets for the friendly encounter in Gateshead are priced at £8 for Adults, £6 Concessions (65+ & 17-20 year-olds) and £3 for children aged 16 and under. The tournament in Spennymoor takes place on July 15 and will offer a good workout for Ben Dawson's lads.

United's reserves will then take on the Moors of the National League North, in a further half-hour clash (kick-off 1.45pm BST) before Spennymoor and Hebburn later lock horns in a contest lasting an hour.

Fans will be able to pay on the day at Spennymoor and admission is £10 Adults and £5 Concessions (60 and over), while it's £3 for under-18s. The Magpies' U21s will also play Barrow on July 29 with the game kicking off at 3pm at SO Legal Stadium.

United will be looking for a better season after finishing fourth bottom in Premier League 2 last season. They won six games from 20 matches in the league and did not enjoy any success in the domestic cups.
