Voting for the Leicester Tigers Player of the Season awards is open throughout the Easter weekend. Don't miss out on placing your votes.

The polls will close on Tuesday morning (April 22) and the winners will be announced at the Try Tuesdays Awards Night on April 29.

Top try-scorer Vereniki Goneva, last year’s Player of the Year winner Julian Salvi, and forwards Jamie Gibson, Ed Slater and Tom Youngs are nominated for the DX Player of the Year Award.

Back-rower Gibson also features in the nominations for Best Newcomer, and fly-half Owen Williams is shortlisted in two categories.

Louis Deacon, Marcos Ayerza, Boris Stankovich and Toby Flood are shortlisted in the DX Outstanding Service Award category.

The DX Try of the Season award is voted for only by Awards Night guests.

Tickets are still available for Awards Night, the biggest evening of the season, in the company of the whole first-team squad and the coaching staff in the Premiership Suite at Welford Road.

This event includes a three-course meal with a Tigers player at your table, interviews and highlights videos, and the presentation of the awards, including the new Fan of the Year award.

More than 500 supporters attended last year’s dinner when Julian Salvi, Manu Tuilagi, Adam Thompstone and Martin Castrogiovanni received the main prizes.

Tickets for the Try Tuesdays Awards Night, sponsored by DX, are £45 for season ticket holders and £55 for all other supporters. Buy at the Tigers ticket office, phone us on 0844 856 1880 (option 2) or click here to book online.
