Harry Wells joins the coaching team

Leicester Lions are pleased to announce “Tigers’ lock, Harry Wells is to join the coaching team for the coming season. Harry has come through the Tigers set up from the age of 14 and now wants to balance his playing career, by helping others develop as rugby players. With Tom Williams leaving at the end of last season to become a player/Coach for Blackheath, the opportunity arose for Harry to step into his boots. “Harry will bring a fresh approach to our coaching team whilst passing on his wealth of experience and keeping us all abreast of what life is like in the professional game”’ said Head Coach, Andy Key.

When asked what he thought he could bring to the Lions, Harry said, “I am looking forward to developing my own coaching style, but more importantly passing on what I have learnt as a player whilst at the Tigers. I know the players, coaching team and club were disappointed in where they finished in the league last season and nothing would please me more if I can help in supporting the clubs ambitions of finishing in the top half this season. It is very fresh in my mind what I have had to do to achieve my current success as a player. So I am looking to support the players both individually and collectively to ensure we can all achieve our ambitions for the coming season.”

Harry will have his first outing with the new look squad as the ‘Lions’ are back for pre-season training starting on Tuesday 3rd July.
