Sam Harrison is the Lumbers Player of the Month for April.

Harrison was announced as the winner during half-time of this evening’s Aviva Premiership game against Newcastle Falcons.

The Leicester Tigers scrum-half finished ahead of Sione Kalamafoni and Matt Toomua in the supporters vote, which took place on the Lumbers website.

Harrison follows Toomua, Greg Bateman, Harry Wells (twice), Telusa Veainu, Valentino Mapapalangi and Jonny May in winning the monthly award.

Supported by High Street jewellers Lumbers and voted for by Tigers supporters, the Player of the Month award recognises the contribution of individual players to the team cause throughout the campaign.

Established in 1881, Lumbers jewellers have been at the heart of Leicester for more than 135 years – just like the Tigers – and are the sponsors of the club’s monthly award.

The Lumbers team offers unparalleled service and knowledge for clients at their premises in High Street, Leicester, with an extensive range of services including jewellery and watch repairs, valuations and engraving.
