Figure image
Take part in a Tigers Rugby Course this Easter and receive top-class coaching and the chance to grill Tigers players on life at England's most successful club.

Tigers and England Saxons lock Graham Kitchener is due to visit Market Bosworth rugby club when Leicester coaches host a camp from April 10 to 13.

Kitchener, who played a key role in Tigers LV= Cup success including scoring a try in the semi-final victory at Bath Rugby, will take part in a question and answer session and talk about life as a professional rugby player.

Tigers coaches will kick-off the Easter programme at Spalding RFC in Lincolnshire with a course from April 2-5. Pete Bucknall is due to visit the camp and take part in a Q&A.

The programme for the rest of the year is taking shape for the summer, with four and five day events spread across the region featuring top-class coaching.

Tigers Rugby Courses are supported by energy efficiency specialists Mark Group, are for players aged nine to 16 taking part in contact rugby and have a new look for 2012.

They have been developed to run close to the Tigers Academy and youth rugby programme. They aim to develop skills for match situations with a focus on the catch and pass, the tackle, the breakdown and support and evasion. The camp concludes with age group games.

Every player who attends a course will receive a free ticket to an allocated Tigers first-team game at Welford Road. They will also receive a Tigers Rugby Course T-shirt, rugby ball and drinks bottle, free membership to the Junior Tigers Club and the Crusha Cru as well as a hot lunch and drinks each day.
