Tait to run Welford Road Masterclass

Figure image
Mathew Tait will pass on some of his experience and expertise when he hosts a Welford Road Masterclass.

Tait, the Tigers and England back, will join Boris Stankovich for a day of specialist coaching at the home of Leicester Tigers next week focusing on unit skills.

Tait, who has scored five tries in 20 starts for Tigers this season and been capped 38 times by England, including the 2007 World Cup Final, will work with the backs.

Stankovich, the popular Tigers prop, will focus on the work of the forwards, including the scrum and lineout, passing on the experience garnered in more than 70 Tigers appearances and spells in New Zealand and France.

Their Welford Road Masterclass will be held on Tuesday (May 28) – during the half-term holiday – and players are urged to book now to avoid disappointment.

Tigers are hosting two other Welford Road Masterclasses which are proving very popular. A kicking masterclass led by Jeremy Staunton has already sold out and a breakdown and contact skills session hosted by Craig Newby on Wednesday (May 29) is in huge demand.

Welford Road Masterclasses are for players in U11s to U16s age groups and are an excellent opportunity to learn and develop position-specific skills, and the perfect way to develop your game during the half-term holiday.

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.

Places are filling up fast and players are encouraged to book now to avoid disappointment. Book now online by clicking here or contact the ticket office on 0844 856 1880 (option 2).

There is also a full programme of Tigers Rugby Camps during the summer, starting next week at Newark RFC and Kenilworth RFC. More details are available by clicking here
