Cheetahs and Ulster Rugby Fixture change

The EPCR Challenge Cup Round 3 match between Toyota Cheetahs and Ulster Rugby will now take place at Dukes Rugby on Sunday 11 January at 14:00 local time.

The Municipality of Amsterdam has declared all municipal sports pitches unplayable until further notice due to the adverse weather conditions experienced during the week. 

As a result, the Round 3 EPCR Challenge Cup fixture between Toyota Cheetahs v Ulster Rugby will no longer be able to take place at the NRCA Stadium on Sunday 11 January KO 1615 (local time). 

Working closely together, Rugby Nederland, Toyota Cheetahs and EPCR have identified an alternative venue at Dukes Rugby, ‘S Hertogenbosch. The fixture will now take place at Dukes Rugby on Sunday 11 January, kicking off at 1400 local time.

The match will be broadcast on EPCRugby.TV, Supersport and FloRugby.

Due to the late change in venue, the fixture will now be played behind closed doors. All ticket purchasers will be entitled to a full refund, minus the admin fee.

EPCR, Rugby Nederland and Toyota Cheetahs are continuing to monitor weather conditions, should these further impact the fixture.

EPCR understands all fans travelling to the match will be disappointed at this decision; however player and match officials safety must prevail.

EPCR would like to thank Rugby Nederland, Toyota Cheetahs and Ulster Rugby for their support in ensuring the fixture will be played.
