What an afternoon yesterday at Leicester Lions RFC!

Plenty of laughs, plenty of smiles and, most importantly, a brilliant bit of team bonding for the lads.

A huge thank you to all the South supporters who came along to cheer the boys on, your support was very much appreciated!

Our seniors and colts have already started their pre season and what a pre season it’s turning out to be, but now it’s time for our mini and junior section to get stuck in!

The countdown is over – pre-season training for our Minis & Juniors is here!
