The Leicester Tigers are a professional rugby union club from Leicester, England. They play in Premiership Rugby, which is England's top rugby league.

The club started in 1880. Since 1892, they have played their home games at Mattioli Woods Welford Road. People have called them the Tigers since at least 1885. In the 2023–24 season, the Tigers finished 8th. This means they can play in the 2024–25 European Rugby Champions Cup. The team's head coach is Michael Cheika, who joined in June 2024.

Leicester Tigers have won 21 big titles. They won the European Champions Cup twice in a row, in 2001 and 2002. They have also won a record 11 English Championships. Plus, they won five RFU Knockout Cups and three Anglo-Welsh Cups. Their most recent win was the Premiership Rugby title in the 2022 season. They also reached a record nine Premiership finals in a row, from 2005 to 2013. Leicester is one of only three teams that have never been moved down to a lower league. They have played in five European finals, winning two and losing three. In 2021, they played in the European Rugby Challenge Cup final.

Six Leicester Tigers players were part of the England team that won the 2003 Rugby World Cup Final. This included their captain, Martin Johnson.

Club History

How the Tigers Started (1880–1928)

LeicesterTigers1894

Leicester Football Club was created on August 3, 1880. It was formed by combining three smaller teams. The club's first game was a tie (0-0) against Moseley on October 23. On September 10, 1892, Leicester played their first game at their home stadium, Welford Road.

Tom Crumbie became the club's secretary in 1895. He helped the club become famous across the country. He focused on having only the best players on the main team. The Tigers won their first trophy, the Midlands Counties Cup, in 1898. They won this cup every year from 1898 to 1905. They then stopped playing in it for a while to give other teams a chance. When they returned in 1909, they won the cup again.

In 1903, Jack Miles was the first player from Leicester to play for the England international team. In 1905, 20,000 fans watched Leicester play against The Original All Blacks. Leicester lost that game. In December 1909, the Tigers played the Barbarians for the first time. This game became a very popular event for many years. Before World War I, the Tigers won the Midlands Counties Cup three more times. This made them the best team in the Midlands. In 1924, a record 35,000 people watched the Tigers play against the "Invincible All Blacks" at Welford Road.

New Leaders and Changes (1928–1971)

In 1930, Leicester's captain, Doug Prentice, led the 1930 British Lions tour to New Zealand and Australia. The first time a Tigers game was on BBC radio was in 1930. Bernard Gadney became the first Leicester player to captain the England team in 1934. He also led the British Lions on their tour to Argentina. The 1936-37 season was a tough one for the club, with fewer wins than usual.

The Tigers' first televised game was in 1951. In 1956-57, the club changed how it was organized. They started having more than just one main team, adding "Extra First XV" and "Colts XV" teams. In 1963-64, David Matthews set a record for playing 109 games in a row for the club. He later became captain and led the team to a record 33 wins in 1966-67. Chalkie White became coach in 1968. He helped the players adapt to new rules that made the game more open.

New Competitions Begin (1971–1978)

The 1971-72 season brought big changes to rugby. The RFU started a national Knockout Cup. On November 16, 1971, the Tigers played their first cup match since 1914. This season also saw the start of the Tigers' first "Youth" team for 14 and 15-year-olds. Just six years later, Paul Dodge from this youth team played for the national team.

The annual game against the Barbarians became very popular in this time. Crowds grew from a few hundred to over 20,000 fans. In 1976-77, the RFU introduced "Merit Tables," which was a step towards creating full leagues. In 1977-78, Leicester reached their first final at Twickenham, but lost to Gloucester. This success helped the club's membership grow a lot.

Winning Trophies (1979–1988)

Leicester won their first national trophy, the 1978–79 John Player Cup, in 1979. They won it again in 1979–80 and 1980–81. In 1980, to celebrate 100 years of the club, the Tigers went on a tour to Australia and Fiji. This was the first time an English club toured the southern hemisphere. On April 25, 1981, Leicester's Dusty Hare broke the world record for points scored in first-class games.

New players like Dean Richards, John Wells, and Rory Underwood joined the team in the early 1980s. In 1987-88, England's first official rugby league, the 1987–88 Courage League, began. The Tigers lost only one match that season and became England's first champions. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, important players like Martin Johnson, Neil Back, Graham Rowntree, Richard Cockerill, and Darren Garforth joined the team.

Professional Rugby and European Wins (1993–2003)

From 1993 to 2002, Leicester won nine trophies in ten years. This amazing run started with the 1993 Pilkington Cup. In 1994-95, Leicester won the Courage League.

In 1995-96, rugby union became a professional sport, and the Heineken cup (European club competition) began. Leicester reached the Heineken Cup final in their first try, but lost. They won the 1997 Pilkington Cup Final. That summer, Martin Johnson was chosen to be captain for the 1997 British Lions tour to South Africa. In 1998, Dean Richards became the Director of Rugby.

Geordan Murphy
Geordan Murphy, pictured in 2012, played 322 games for Leicester between 1997 and 2013. He won 8 Premiership titles, 2 European titles and 2 Anglo-Welsh cups.

Under Dean Richards, Leicester had a "golden age." They won four Premiership Rugby titles in a row from 1999 to 2002. They also won the Heineken Cup twice in a row in 2001 and 2002. In the 2001 Heineken Cup final, the Tigers won their first European title. They also won the Premiership playoffs that year, achieving a rare "treble" (three major wins in one season). Martin Johnson became the first person to captain two British & Irish Lions tours.

Leicester was the first team to win a European title two years in a row, beating Munster in the 2002 Heineken Cup Final. They also won their fourth Premiership title in a row in 2002. During this time, Leicester went 57 games unbeaten at home. They won 52 games in a row at home. In these four seasons, they lost only 14 out of 92 games.

In the 2003-04 season, Leicester's performance dropped. Dean Richards left the club. His assistant, John Wells, took over. In Martin Johnson and Neil Back's last game for Leicester, they lost the Premiership Final.

More Premiership Success (2004–2013)

Pat Howard became the new Head Coach. In his second season, Leicester won their first trophy in five years, the Anglo-Welsh Cup. They also won the Premiership final, achieving a domestic league and cup double. However, they lost the Heineken Cup Final. Pat Howard then left the club.

Marcelo Loffreda became the coach for one season. He led Leicester to two finals, but they lost both. After this, Richard Cockerill took over as coach. Cockerill led Leicester to two Premiership titles in a row. They won the 2009 Premiership final and kept their title in 2010. Leicester lost the 2009 Heineken Cup Final in a very close game.

Tom Croft 2012
Tom Croft made his debut in 2006 after coming through the club's academy. He played 173 games before retiring in 2017.

In November 2009, Leicester played against the world champion Springboks and won. The Tigers continued to reach Premiership finals, losing in 2011 and 2012. They won the 2012 LV Cup. In 2013, the Tigers won their 10th English title, a record, by beating their rivals Northampton Saints.

Tougher Times (2013–2020)

The next few years were harder for the Tigers. They lost in the Premiership semi-finals several times. In January 2017, Richard Cockerill left his role as Director of Rugby. Aaron Mauger took temporary charge and won the 2017 Anglo-Welsh Cup. Matt O'Connor became the new head coach. In 2017-18, the Tigers missed the playoffs for the first time since 2005. After a big loss in 2018, Matt O'Connor left the club. Geordan Murphy took over, first temporarily, then permanently. The team finished 11th in the Premiership, their lowest ever finish.

In 2020, Steve Borthwick was announced as the new head coach. The 2019-20 Premiership Rugby season was stopped because of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom. The club faced financial difficulties. Some players left the club during this time. The Tigers finished 11th again, but avoided being moved down a league because another team had points taken away. In November 2020, Geordan Murphy left his role.

Return to Success (2020–2022)

With Steve Borthwick as the new head coach, Leicester started winning again. In his first season, Borthwick led Leicester to the 2020-21 European Rugby Challenge Cup final. They also finished 6th in the league, which meant they could play in the Champions Cup again.

The next season, the Tigers had a fantastic start, winning their first five league games. They were unbeaten for 15 games in all competitions. In Europe, they reached the Champions Cup quarter-finals.

At home, they secured a semi-final playoff game. In the semi-final, they beat their rivals Northampton Saints. In the final, Leicester played against Saracens. The game was tied, but Freddie Burns scored a drop goal in the last minute to win Leicester their 11th English title. This was a huge achievement, especially after finishing 11th just two seasons before.

Steve Borthwick later became the head coach for the England national team. Richard Wigglesworth took over temporarily, and then Dan McKellar became the full-time head coach in 2023.

Women's Team

Leicester Tigers started a women's team on July 15, 2021. They created this team in partnership with Lichfield Ladies.

Honours

Leicester Tigers hold many records in English rugby. They have won the most Premiership titles (11). They also have the record for playing in the most Premiership Finals in a row (9). They were the first team to win a Premiership semi-final playoff game away from home.

Team Name and Colours

Nickname: The Tigers

Welford Road Mural
A mural on the West Stand at Welford Road Stadium.

The club's official name is Leicester Football Club. But everyone knows them as the "Tigers." The first time the name "Tigers" was used was in 1885. It probably came from the team's old chocolate and yellow playing kit. It might also be linked to the Leicestershire Regiment, who were called 'Tigers' after serving in India.

In their early days, they were also known as "The Death or Glory Boys" because of their black shirts.

Player Numbers and Letters

In 1926, Leicester started using letters (like A-G) to identify their forwards. By 1931, they used letters for the whole team. This tradition lasted until 1998. Then, new league rules made them use numbers instead. The Tigers first wore numbers on September 5, 1998.

Today, Leicester only uses letters for friendly games, not for official competitions. On their current uniform, the letters are shown in a small size on the front.

Team Colours

The very first Leicester Tigers kit was black with white shorts and black socks. From 1884 to 1887, they wore chocolate and yellow shirts, which likely gave them their "Tigers" nickname. They then tried claret and French grey stripes for a few years.

Martin Johnson and Graham Rowntree

The famous scarlet, green, and white colours were first used on October 3, 1891. At first, they were vertical stripes. But in 1895, the well-known horizontal stripes were introduced. They wore black shorts and socks until 1906. Then, they briefly wore white shirts with navy shorts. From 1909 to 1947, they returned to the striped jersey with navy shorts. In 1947, the navy shorts were changed to white.

The Tigers' kit stayed mostly the same from 1947 to 1999. Only small changes were made, like adding a manufacturer's logo or a sponsor. In 1999, the Tigers started using a darker green colour. Since then, they have used different kit designs.

Stadium: Welford Road

The Leicester Tigers play their home games at Mattioli Woods Welford Road. The stadium opened in 1892 and could hold 3,000 fans at first. Over the years, more stands were built. In 1995, a new stand was added. The stadium can now hold 25,849 people after upgrades in 2008 and 2015.

Before the 2008 upgrades, the club thought about sharing a stadium with the city's main football club, Leicester City. But after talks, they decided not to.

In 2007, the club announced plans to make Welford Road bigger. They wanted to increase the capacity to 25,000 by 2011. In 2008, they got permission for a big £60 million project. The first part was building a new 10,000-seat North Stand. This increased the total capacity to 24,000. The new North Stand was finished for the first home game of the 2009-10 season.

In 2015, the Tigers announced plans to continue improving Welford Road. They replaced the old clubhouse and a temporary stand with a new building that could hold 3,100 more people. This work was completed by January 2016.

In 2020, Mattioli Woods extended their naming rights deal. The stadium became known as Mattioli Woods Welford Road.
