Figure image
Tigers have now announced their squad for this season's Middlesex Sevens which takes place at Twickenham this Saturday, August 18.

England Sevens star Tom Croft captains the side, having been one of the standout performers at last year's event.

Tigers will be aiming to go one step further than last season, when they reached the final of the competition following victories over Saracens, Worcester, Newcastle and London Irish.

Jordan Crane, Ayoola Erinle and Ben Pienaar are also included, as is exciting scrum-half Ben Youngs who made his Guinness Premiership debut at the back end of last season and went on to appear in the Premiership Final against Gloucester in May.

There's an opportunity for a number of promising academy players to impress as well, as Tigers opt for a mixture of youth and experience ahead of the annual curtain raiser.

Tigers squad:

Tom Croft (captain)
Ben Pienaar
Jordan Crane
Robert Bell
Ben Youngs
Billy Twelvetrees 
Will Lawson
Ayoola Erinle
Rickie Aley
Chris Mundy
Vavae Tuilagi
Will Hurrell
