TigersLotto support for heritage monument

Figure image
At the heart of the Leicester Tigers is more than 130 years of history and by playing the TigersLotto this week, you can help to protect that legacy.

We are proud that through the TigersLotto we are able to support a number of club causes from the academy to community projects and the protection and preservation of that rich history.
 
Tigers history is full of heroes and personalities, and these are not just limited to the pitch. Forward-thinking and ambitious administrators, innovative and inspirational coaches, and dedicated supporters have kept the club at the heart of the Tigers Family community and we feel that is something to be recorded, secured and displayed for future generations.
 
The Leicester Tigers Foundation is working towards establishing a visitor attraction celebrating that rich history to add to Leicester's place as an increasingly popular tourist destination and we intend to use the club’s story as inspiration for further projects in the future.
 
The first step is to install a Foundation Monument to act as a gateway to a larger heritage and community project, and to act as an iconic symbol of respect for the past and inspiration for the future.
 
The monument will recognise members of the Royal Leicestershire Regiment who have played for the Tigers and act as a memorial to the fallen. Importantly, it will also recognise those whose lives have been affected by injury in rugby or conflict and how Tigers are working with disability sport to support and inspire future generations and different cultures.
 
The Tigers Family will be central to our goal of growing our community activities and celebrating that Leicester Tigers culture.
 
Every day this week TigersLotto players support this project and have a chance to win a Foundation Crown worth more than £100.
 
Alongside the crown, each winner will have their name etched into the heritage monument and will receive an invitation to the monument launch in November 2018.
