The Prima Tiger Cup semi-finals will now be played at Welford Road on February 9 before the Aviva Premiership match against London Welsh.

Nottingham Paviors will face Wymondham, and Kenilworth will play Loughborough in the last four of the under-10s competition before the Aviva Premiership game and the young teams will have the opportunity to stay and watch the Tigers match.

All four clubs joined us at Welford Road to watch the Heineken Cup showdown with Toulouse on Sunday and took part in a half-time lap parade around the pitch.

Supported by Prima Solutions of Loughborough, and now in its 19th year, the Prima Tiger Cup is open to club under-10s teams and this year attracted 50 entries from across the country.

After coming through the regional festivals, the young players first experienced playing on the famous Tigers turf in the opening part of the knockout stages ahead of the Aviva Premiership match against Bath and the Heineken Cup date with Benetton Treviso in December.

Kenilworth and Paviors booked their semi-finals places from the opening contests on the day of the Bath match, with Loughborough and Wymondham battling through to join them a couple of weeks later.

All four teams have enjoyed a magnificent run to get this far and are now playing for the chance to reach the Prima Tiger Cup Final here.

Thank you to all four teams, their coaches, parents and supporters, and to Prima Solutions of Loughborough for their continued support of this prestigious competition.

This weekend it is the turn of the Prima Tiger Bowl semi-finalists ahead of the Tigerws match against London Wasps.
