The shortlist for the Leicester Tigers Supporters’ Players of the Year 2020/21 can now be revealed ahead of the opening of voting.

Although there is no annual Awards Night this season due to the timing of relaxation in restrictions on social gatherings, supporters will still have the opportunity to identify their top performers.

And in acknowledgement of the changes made to the format of the season and to the playing squad caused by the suspension period in mid-2020, the awards this year will recognise performances from the restart phase last summer right through to the climax of the 2020/21 season.

Voting will be open to find the Newcomer of the Year, Young Player and Player of the Year.

Look out for full details on how to vote on the club website tomorrow.

Voting will close on Tuesday evening next week (June 8) with the winners revealed ahead of the final game of the season, away to Wasps on June 12.

The Try of the Year will be selected at the conclusion of the season from the list of Topps Tiles Try-Umph of the Month winners, with voting for the May award open now.

And the Outstanding Service award will be held back this year until supporters are able to acknowledge their winner in person when further government guidelines allow.
