Tigers Women are back for the 2026-27 season (sort of?) with She’s the Champ Pod

Hello and welcome back to the Leicester Tigers women's fan cast.

Tigers women are back, or are they? We'll kind of discuss that as we go on this episode.

For this week, I'm delighted to once again be joined by Bluebell, who is the host of the She's the Champ pod on the podcast that's dedicated to Champ 1 rugby in women's rugby in England.

Hi, Bluebell, welcome back.

Hello, thank you for having me.

I hope you've had a good summer.

Yeah, nice to be back.

Yeah, no, it's not been too bad.

It's gone, everyone's saying this, everyone's saying this, it went really quick.

Yeah, I agree, very much so.

I thought I'd have a nice, easy summer where I could plan lots and lots of Choose a Champ content stuff, and then I, like, closed my eyes, and it was mid-August.

But yeah, I'm sure it's been the same on your side with this, but yeah.

Yeah, I mean, like, because I sort of messaged you last week to say, oh, do you want to talk about the Cheltenham game? Thinking that was like weeks away and like it was later that week.

So, yeah, time's definitely gone really, really quick.
