Pupils at more than 20 schools across three counties have been able to get their hands on the Gallagher Premiership trophy in the early weeks of the new season thanks to Leicester Tigers.
The Tigers have toured schools across Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, taking the trophy lifted by the team at Twickenham last June when the club became league champions for an 11th time.
Students – and teachers and staff – at schools have been able to have their photos taken with the silverware as the new season kicked off while schools received an exclusive Group Bookings deal to watch Tigers at Mattioli Woods Welford Road.
Tigers group bookings are a great way to enjoy matchday with friends, family or colleagues with parties from schools and colleges, universities and workplaces, rugby clubs and other organisations joining us every home game.
Opportunities include:
Flag Shakers – welcome the teams on to the pitch at Mattioli Woods Welford Road with the giant Tigers flag in the moments building up to kick-off in a big game
Guard of Honour – No one in the stadium gets as close to the players as they run out from the tunnel just ahead of kick-off.
Warm-up Experience – Take part in a tour of the stadium before watching the Tigers team’s final preparations from the edge of the pitch.
Ultimate Big Boot - Sponsored by De Montfort University, the Big Boot provides half-time entertainment on the pitch as teams test their skills and their nerve in front a big home crowd.
Matchday Coaching Clinics – Young players from Under-7s through to Under-16s can develop individual and team skills with Tigers coaches and then join us for a home game to see professional players put those lessons into practice at Mattioli Woods Welford Road.
Reason to party – Matchday is a perfect time to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, stag/hen party or any other special occasion with friends and family as part of a group booking.
