Our Under 14s went to the National Play offs this weekend. This team has shown amazing courage, determination and ability to adapt under pressure this year. They have achieved so much and it is clear in how far they have developed. Whilst the results didn't go the Panthers way yesterday, there were 3 amazing games of football against 3 amazing competitors. Lots of fun was had and brilliant football was player. Now we turn our focus from National Playoffs to our next campaign.

After a substantial amount of time…….WE FINALLY LOOK AMAZING!!

The Under 16s and Under 19s finally rocking their new training jerseys! Formally the academy being known as the Rugby Rhinos before merging into the Leicester Panthers, we had to still use the old Rhinos kits during training, but now they are out of the window and donning the black jerseys!

Great training today all and great to see 4 new faces today!

Yesterday, our Under 16’s squad took on the in a friendly match at home in the glorious sunshine!

It was a phenomenal game and both sides had done themselves proud! We feel that we made the Bombers aware of our capabilities and we are well prepared for whoever we come against!

Thank you to the Lincolnshire Bombers Academy for coming to our home and we hope you enjoyed yourselves too! We hope to see you again in the near future!
