Young players target Prima Tiger Cup

Figure image
Calling all under-10s teams - take part in this season's Prima Tiger Cup and you could be playing at the home of Leicester Tigers before a big first-team game.

We are inviting under-10s teams from across the country to take part in the competition and already more than 50 teams have registered.

The tournament kicks off its 16th season this month and entry is free.

Supported by Loughborough-based Prima Solutions, the Prima Tiger Cup features four festivals around the Tigers region followed by the quarter-finals, which will be held at Welford Road before Tigers’ Aviva Premiership Rugby clash with Newcastle Falcons on Saturday, November 27.

Birmingham-based Silhillians landed the title last year when they beat Market Harborough in the final cheered on by a large Welford Road crowd.

The festivals are great fun in their own right, with teams coming from all over the country to compete against each other. And even if you don’t reach the Welford Road quarter-finals, you’re sure to meet teams you don’t normally play during a season and develop friendships and contacts.

To find out more or to enter a team, contact Prima Tiger Cup organiser Eric Barker by emailing [email protected] or phone the Tigers community department on 0844 856 1880.
