SA teams' URC Round 1 fixtures confirmed
NEWS: South Africa’s four United Rugby Championship fixtures for Round One have been confirmed for the weekend of February 8, 2025.
Fixtures for Round One between the four local teams were moved after the South African Rugby Union requested it in early September to accommodate the playoffs schedule of the Currie Cup, which was set to conclude on the same weekend as the opening round of the URC’s 2024/25 campaign.
It has been confirmed that the Bulls will travel to Cape Town to face the Stormers on Saturday, February 8, at 14.00.
