LYMM Rugby Club’s Under-9s team had a little help from an international star in their training session last week.
England centre Manu Tuilagi dropped in for a session with the team and helped to coach the starstruck youngsters.
Andy Leach, Head of Lymm RFC’s Mini and Junior section, was thrilled Tuilagi was able to spare some of his time alongside his brother Alex and Leicester prop Logovi'i Mulipola.
“We are delighted to welcome Manu, Alex and Logovi’i who have given up their Sunday morning and travelled quite a distance,” he said.
“It’s great for our boys to meet these top internationals and it gives them something to aim for. They loved every minute and learned a lot.”
