Boris Stankovich will call on his wealth of experience to lead a unit skills masterclass at the home of Leicester Tigers.

Stankovich, the hugely popular Leicester Tigers prop, will lead the Welford Road Masterclass, a day of specialist coaching focusing on the work of the forwards, including the scrum and lineout.

Stankovich has made 102 appearances for Tigers, captaining the team for the first time in the LV= Cup tie at Exeter in January 2011. He has won two Premiership titles and the LV= Cup last season.

It is the third confirmed Welford Road Masterclass and will take place at the home of Leicester Tigers on Tuesday, May 28.

Former Tigers and All Blacks back rower Craig Newby will return to Welford Road for a breakdown and contact skills masterclass on Wednesday, May 29 and Jeremy Staunton, the ex Tigers and Ireland fly-half, will lead a kicking masterclass on Thursday, May 30.

Welford Road Masterclasses are for players in U11s to U16s age groups and are an excellent opportunity to learn and develop position-specific skills.

Players attending a masterclass will receive a free junior ticket to an allocated first-team game at Welford Road next season as well as lunch on the day, a Rugby Camp T-shirt, a water bottle, a rugby ball and free membership to the Junior Tigers Club.
