Tigers players logged on this week to learn new skills in the classroom, with some valuable training in computers and IT.

The club’s player rep, Will Johnson, organised the session in the Tigers Learning Centre facility at Welford Road, which does great work for a host of school children across the region. Tigers first team players Freddie Tuilagi, Ramiro Pez, Steve Booth, Martin Corry and defence coach Damian McGrath were among those to take advantage of the training.

They went through the basics of the internet, and computer programmes such as Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint, picking up some useful tips along the way.
