Prima Tiger Bowl success for young Wymondham side at Leicester Tigers’s Welford Road ground
Wymondham Under-10s are celebrating after winning the Prima Tiger Bowl in Leicester on Saturday.
The South Norfolk youngsters secured the title at Welford Road after beating Burton from Staffordshire 3-1 in the final – played as a curtain-raiser to Leicester Tigers' 42-15 Aviva Premiership victory over Newcastle Falcons. They were presented with the silverware during the interval of the senior game.
Wymondham reached the final with a 4-0 victory against Melton Mowbray earlier in the day.
'It means so much to them to be at Welford Road,' said Wymondham coach David Clark. 'They have worked so hard, have been undefeated through the whole competition and it's great to win the Prima Tiger Bowl.
'You could see how much it meant to us and the supporters. There must have been 60 supporters making lots of noise, it was beautiful weather and we're delighted.'
