Andrea Pinchen<\/a> said: \u201cWe\u2019re excited to announce a partnership between UXi and Leicester Tigers and thrilled to be embarking on this initiative with UXi Sport, to provide opportunities for women and girls.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cTo align with an organisation with such proven success in developing players and coaches as both rugby players and people is something we are very proud to be doing and are excited to champion this ground breaking programme.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe UXi Leicester Tigers International Women\u2019s Rugby Institute will provide a multitude of opportunities to develop the tremendous untapped talent that exists in our region and builds on the hard work a lot of people have put in place in the last few years in the women\u2019s game, here at the Club.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis partnership furthers the expansion of opportunities provided through our Premiership Women\u2019s Rugby team, our pathway programme at Lichfield and Brooksby College and our increased work in schools and club to help get more young girls to play rugby than ever before.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will be mutually beneficial to all involved and we can\u2019t wait to see how the institution progresses over the coming years.\u201d<\/p>\n
COO of UXi Sport, Thea Miller, concluded: “We’re thrilled to partner with Leicester Tigers, a club with a rich history and passion for the sport.<\/p>\n
“This collaboration embodies our shared vision for growing women’s rugby and providing opportunities for talented individuals to thrive.<\/p>\n
“Our UXi Leicester Tigers International Women\u2019s Rugby Institute will offer a world-class development programme, combining high-performance rugby training with internationally accredited academic qualifications.<\/p>\n
“We invite aspiring players and coaches to join us on this exciting journey, and we’re confident that together, we’ll make a lasting impact on the sport.”<\/p>\n
