Leicester Tigers are without another home game during March, but we still have some big rugby dates coming up this month at Welford Road.

The 2013 varsity matches between University of Leicester and De Montfort University are hosted by the Tigers on Wednesday, March 20, with the women’s match at 6.30pm and the men’s match immediately afterwards.

The university sports events run all day, featuring everything from rowing to football, with the rugby showdown providing the final showpiece occasion and confirming the title of this year’s Varsity champions.

The rugby head to head has been held at Welford Road since 2002, with the women’s match being added two years later.

Tickets are available now and cost £5 in advance or £7.50 on the door. They can be purchased from the Welford Road ticket office (open 8.30am-5pm weekdays, until 8pm Wednesdays and 9am-5pm Saturdays).

Welford Road also hosts the Leicestershire Rugby Union Senior County Cup and Colts Cup finals on Tuesday, March 26.

The Laurence Fenton Colts Cup Final kicks off at 6pm, with the line-up still to be confirmed as the competition has just reached its semi-final stages. The senior final between Lutterworth and Hinckley kicks off at 7.30pm. Tickets will be available on the night, price £5 adults, £3 concessions and juniors.
