Ely Tigers and Le Spice Reunite for a Festive Pre-Match Christmas Lunch at The Pocock and Shaw Park
Following the success of their previous partnership meal, Ely Tigers Rugby Club are delighted to once again team up with Le Spice and its owner, Amin Haque, for a special Festive Pre-Match Christmas Lunch on Saturday 20th December 2025 at 1:00pm, held at The Pocock and Shaw Park.
The event will take place ahead of Ely Tigers’ final home game before Christmas a highly anticipated clash against local rivals Newmarket RFC. The theme is Ex Players and we would love to see plenty of those who have worn the yellow and black with pride over the years. Despite the theme, the event is open to all though, with club members, supporters and sponsors very welcome!
Guests will enjoy an exclusive Le Spice-inspired festive menu, bringing together the restaurant’s renowned flavours with the warm, community atmosphere of Ely Tigers Rugby Club. It promises to be an afternoon of great food, great company, and great rugby.
“After the huge success of our last event with Le Spice, it was an easy decision to partner with Amin and his team again,” said Andy Gunbie, Club Chairman. “They share our values of community, passion, and excellence and this pre-match lunch is set to be a real highlight of the festive season.”
Full menu details and booking information will be released shortly via the Ely Tigers website and social media channels. Spaces are limited, and early booking is strongly advised.
Join us on Saturday 20th December as we celebrate Christmas in true Ely Tigers style with fantastic food, local pride, and exciting rugby.
