“We were even given a signed Leicester Tigers shirt by Melton Sports to help raise funds and this has caused some ripples of excitement; everyone wants to win it!” Jenny added: “I’m so proud of everyone involved in this. We have made such huge leaps in a very short space of time.”
The girls train on Sunday mornings at Burton Road from 10.30am, and any girls of all ages wanting to join should call Jenny on 07814 544210.
Anyone wanting a raffle ticket for the Tigers shirt can also call Jenny.
