The Tigers have added two fixtures to their preseason programme

The Tigers will face Cambridge Lions and Boston Buccaneers on Sunday 19th and Saturday 25th April respectively.

Boston reached the Midland Entry League final in their first season in 2014 and despite being new to the sport they boast an enthusiastic and capable squad.

Despite being just down the road, the Tigers have never played the Cambridge Lions at 1st grade level and after some good player recruitment in the off season they are looking to challenge for promotion from the East RL Division 1 in 2015.

"Both games will give us a great chance to put our training into practice and tweak anything that's not quite right just before the 2015 campaign gets under way", said coach Rob Ashton. "There's a lot of excitement building already. We have a new Captain and some good additions to the coaching staff and recruitment is looking better than it has done for years".

The Tigers kick off their 2015 season on May 9th.
