Titans add to squad ahead of play-offs

Rotherham Titans have added Tom Armes to their ranks ahead of their promotion play-off campaign, as head coach Andre Bester continues to strengthen his squad.

Tom Armes has agreed a dual registration deal between his current club Leicester Tigers and Rotherham Titans. When not required by Leicester, Tom will be available to turn out for the Titans.

The 21 years old back-rower is English qualified and has developed his game through the Tigers Academy system. Tom is no stranger to the RFU Championship, having appeared 16 times for Nottingham during the 2010-11 season.

Tom has experience of playing ‘A’ league rugby with Tigers and the Norfolk-born flanker made his first team debut as a replacement in the Premiership win over Northampton in October 2009. He also came off the bench in Leicester Tigers historic win over world champions South Africa a week later.
