Leicester Tigers confirm signing of England hopeful front row from local rivals

Andrews is primarily a hooker, and has previously represented East Midlands rivals Loughborough Lightning in the PWR as well as Market Harborough. Andrews has gained previous international recognition whilst appearing for England Women U18 Talent Development Group.

Head coach Fraser Goatcher is delighted about the squad’s newest addition. “We are really pleased to have signed Phoebe, she is a hard-working physical player that will add good depth to the squad.

Upon the completion of her contract signing, Andrews added, “ I’m really excited to now have signed for Tigers. During the first year of the programme I was with Litchfield so I saw close up how much was being developed within the system and so it feels full circle to have now joined the club officially. I can’t wait to get started playing at Mattioli Woods Welford Road in that famous green shirt.”
