Students interview Tigers CEO on podcast

In March, our student podcast, ‘In The Meadows,’ hit the road, heading to the iconic Mattioli Woods Welford Road Stadium, home of the Leicester Tigers, to interview CEO Andrea Pinchen.

Hosted by Year 7 student Aaliyah, Andrea spoke about her 20-year-association with the club, detailing her rise from Ticket Sales Manager all the way up to CEO.

She also spoke at length about steering the Tigers through the COVD-19 pandemic, before outlining her long-term vision for the club.

Reflecting on her podcast appearance, Andrea said: “I am so grateful for the opportunity to have been invited on to be a part of such an insightful, engaging experience with the Judgemeadow team.

“Thank you for having me and thank you for the great work you continue to do, representing our community so well.”

Podcast host Aaliyah added: “Thank you to Andrea Pinchen and the Leicester Tigers team for allowing us to come and record our podcast. It was a wonderful, exciting experience.

“Meeting the CEO was an inspiring moment, and I will always remember!”
