Three of Leicester Tigers' England internationals have donated signed boots for an online auction in aid of CDKL5 UK, an official club charity.

Croft and Youngs, who are currently on tour with the British & Irish Lions in Australia, have each signed and donated a pair of size 11 Adidas boots to the auction. Waldrom has signed and donated a pair of size 10 Nike boots, which are pictured.

CDKL5 UK is a charity close to the heart of Tigers and Martyn Newey, an orthopaedic surgeon who provides pitchside medical cover for Tigers, whose daughter was diagnosed with CDKL5 in 2010. The charity raises awareness of CDKL5, a rare genetic condition, and provides support for affected families and raises funds for research.

Tigers fans can support CDKL5 by voting for the charity to receive a donation from Direct Debit's Big Break. CDKL5 is one of 100 charities nominated for Big Break, which will donate £2,000 to the charity with the most votes. Click here to vote for the charity
