Bath Rugby celebrate historic treble with bus tour through city
Bath Rugby fans have lined the streets to catch a glimpse of players as they take a victory tour through the city.
The side won an historic victory against Leicester at Twickenham on Saturday (June 14) - winning their first Premiership title in 29 years.
A huge celebration is taking place in the city on Sunday evening (June 15).
An open top bus is travelling through the city centre, ending at The Rec, where a Champions Party is being held.
Saturday's victory means Bath have won the treble - with previous wins at both the Premiership Rugby Cup and European Challenge Cup this season.
But the side certainly gave fans a nerve-wracking experience - beating Leicester by just two points with a final score of 23 - 21.
One undeniable highlight was Finn Russells spectacular sprint down the pitch before generously passing to Max Ojomoh to score the try.
Speaking after the match, the fly half said "The main thing about this team is the circle that we've got in the group - the players, staff - and we've got the whole city behind us.
"I think myself and other players on the pitch we can go out there and express ourselves knowing everyone's got each other's back, and if you want to win stuff that's potentially more important than individuals."
