Company Secretary: Mary Ford Registered Office: The Club House, Aylestone Road, Leicester LE2 7TR Page 3 PAGE 5 Strategic Report Chairman’s Statement The level of loyalty and commitment among supporters of Leicester Tigers remains the envy of our competitors. It is a position reflected, too, in our relationships with sponsors and partners, many of whom have long-term links with the club. This loyalty resulted in record ticket sales at Welford Road during the 2016/17 season while, in a very competitive marketplace, the club also secured record levels of sponsorship including improved terms with existing partners and a number of new relationships. All of this was secured against the background of seeking a new main partner at the conclusion of an eight-year relationship with Caterpillar, with Holland & Barrett welcomed into that role before the start of the season. The Tigers’ position as the biggest and best-supported club in the professional game in this country remains intact and it is one on which we continue to build. The club continues to work extremely hard on improving facilities for supporters alongside improvements in the matchday experience at Welford Road and also in attracting newcomers to experience what we have to offer. We welcome hundreds of young supporters from schools and junior rugby clubs across the region and beyond for every home game, while developing broader links throughout the country with events like Tigers Rugby Camps, matchday coaching clinics, the Tigers Challenge and our junior rugby tournaments. Alongside this investment of time and resource in local markets, the club also has a global plan which spreads the name of Leicester Tigers far and wide. In the last 12 months, we have continued to work with clubs and young players in Italy, Japan, Malaysia and the United States. These are significant locations in the development of the global game and it is important for us to be central to that growth. As a business, Leicester was one of the first clubs to fully embrace professionalism when the game went open in the mid-1990s and we continue to develop as professional rugby enters its third decade. Competitive arena In February 2017, the team lifted its first silverware in four years as the only three-time winners of the Anglo-Welsh Cup. The format of the tournament, played during the international windows, allows competitive opportunities for younger and inexperienced players, led by a core of their seniors. Whilst we were disappointed not to reach the Premiership final, the team reached the knockout stage for a record 13th consecutive season. This is a remarkable achievement that is, sadly, often overlooked. Supporters, as ever, remain at the core of the Club and we were proud to say that during the 2016/17 season, Welford Road welcomed a record number of visitors in the first full season since the opening of the new Robin Hood Stand which takes capacity to beyond 25,000. We hosted the biggest-ever crowd for an Anglo-Welsh Cup fixture outside the Final and also achieved the club’s biggest-ever European Cup attendance. The 2016/17 season saw the end of Richard Cockerill’s tenure as Director of Rugby and I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge his immense contribution to the club both as player and coach.

  • Originally Known As the R
    Example of a John Player rugby cup Originally known as the R.F.U Club Competition, for which no cup was awarded nor sponsorship sought, it was renamed the John Player Cup in 1976, Gosforth beating Rosslyn Park in the Final. The first competition took place in 1972, and Gloucester were crowned inaugural champions, defeating Moseley in the final, 17 to 6. Coventry won two titles in succession in 1973 and 1974, and after Bedford's championship win in 1975, Gosforth also won two in succession, in 1976 and 1977. Gloucester won their second title in 1978. The competition was then dominated by Leicester, who won three championships in a row, until Gloucester won their third title in 1982. This was shared with Moseley after a 12-12 draw in extra time, and was the only time the cup was shared between two teams. Leicester were again in the final in 1983, but lost to Bristol. Leicester's record run was then broken by Bath from 1984-87, who won the John Player Cup four times in a row, until Harlequins won their first in 1988. The John Player Cup was named after John Player, a nineteenth century Nottinghamshire businessman. John Player had his own factory that made cigarettes and the company ultimately grew to become a huge concern known as John Player & Sons. We don’t have the John Player Cup today because tobacco advertising has been banned on health grounds as it is believed that if tobacco companies sponsor sports it encourages people to smoke. Today, John Player Special and John Player King Size are manufactured by Imperial Tobacco, whereas John Player Gold Leaf is manufactured by British American Tobacco (in some countries), and ranks as one of the best selling and popular tobacco products in Pakistan.
