After four years at Leicester Lions, Forwards Coach George Richardson will be departing the club.

πŸ—£οΈGeorge said:
β€œI have had an incredible time at Leicester Lions over the last 4 years whilst spending 3 of those years in national 1. I’ve worked with some incredibly talented players and coaches but the special thing for me about Lions is the family club ethos. Although I’m moving on, Leicester Lions will always have a special place in my heart and I look forward to see the club going from strength to strength under the hands of Tom and Arron.”

Everyone at Leicester Lions thanks George for his commitment and wishes him all the best for the future πŸ’œ

With a strong background across both playing and coaching, we’re excited to see the impact he’ll bring to the squad.

It’s an exciting time to join the club and be part of a new project. With the strong core of players the club has retained, along with new additions coming in, there’s a lot to look forward to.
I’m excited to work with the group and help the players continue to develop and perform over the next few seasons.
Can’t wait to get started and looking forward to pre-season already.”
