The festive season has arrived for the Leicester Tigers players and staff, who will be out-and-about in Leicester this week in the lead up to Christmas.

It all begins on Wednesday when players will visit the Leicester Royal Infirmary and Leicester General Hospital to meet patients and staff.

Logovi’i Mulipola and Luke Hamilton will be among the squad members spreading some Christmas cheer at the city hospitals.

Tigers staff will attend De Montfort University’s annual Christmas Carol Service on Wednesday afternoon. The festivities kick-off at 3pm outside The Leicester Castle Business School before moving a service at Leicester Cathedral at 3.45pm.

And Tigers players will be special guests at a Christmas party at the headquarters of Holland & Barrett.

Sam Harrison and Dom Barrow will be among the players thanking the club’s main sponsor and their staff  for another big year together in the Tigers family.

Keep an eye across the club’s social media channels and official website for the latest updates and coverage at all Christmas events.
