Leicester Tigers made it an unforgettable date night for Lucy Brands when she was presented to a big Welford Road crowd as the winner of My First Matchday.My First Matchday aims to give first-time visitors to the home of Tigers a memorable experience – and that’s just what happened to Lucy, 23, who received a Tigers goodie bag at half-time of Friday’s game against Gloucester Rugby.
Lucy, from Stafford, was visiting Welford Road for the first time on a date with her fiancé Jordan Hyland.
She said: “It was a Christmas present from my fiancé. It’s a date every month for a year and a trip to Welford Road was my February date.
It’s amazing. I have been a fan of rugby and it is great to see it live.”
Sign up a first-time visitor now at leicestertigers.com/myfirstmatchday or on matchday with a Games Keeper and they will be put into a prize draw to win a bag of Tigers goodies.
First-time visitors can also pick up a My First Matchday certificate signed by club captain Ed Slater from Games Keepers.
