Ben Hardy will represent Tigers at Twickenham after winning the Leicester leg of the Aviva Premiership Rugby Trophy Tour.

Tigers fans were challenged to see who could lift the trophy – which weighs 15kg – the longest with a day out the Aviva Premiership Final on May 25 on offer to the winner.

Ben held the trophy for one minute and 20 seconds during Saturday’s lift-off in the Caterpillar Stand at Welford Road.

He will represent Tigers in the ultimate Trophy Lift-Off at the biggest day of the domestic rugby calendar. There, the winner will have the honour of taking the Aviva Premiership trophy pitch-side before the teams run out.
