Thomas Nicholas Youngs is a rugby union player who plays as a hooker for Leicester Tigers and England. Youngs is the son of former Leicester and England scrum-half Nick Youngs, and the elder brother of current Leicester and England scrum-half Ben Youngs. Originally a centre he changed to play at hooker after advice from then Tigers coach Heyneke Meyer. Youngs played for Gresham's School and for England Schools, and also for Holt as a junior. He made his Tigers debut against London Irish on Boxing Day 2006, broke his leg after five minutes and came off after thirteen. In 2007-08, he was a member of the England squad at Rugby sevens. In the 2008/09 season, Youngs was used in the Leicester "A" team as a hooker, where he was trained by current Leicester head coach and former Tigers and England hooker Richard Cockerill. On England's summer tour to South Africa in 2012, Youngs was taken as part of the main touring squad for experience. He played in the midweek games and his performances led to him being touted as a future England starting hooker.
