2022/23 EPCR Challenge Cup – rearranged fixtures
Following the RFU’s decisions to suspend Wasps and Worcester Warriors from the Gallagher Premiership for the remainder of the season, both clubs cannot be included in the 2022/23 EPCR Challenge Cup fixture schedule.
Due to the resulting changes to the number of clubs eligible to compete in the tournament, EPCR has worked with all relevant stakeholders to agree that Wasps’ and Worcester Warriors’ original opponents will now play against one another in Pool B, which has been reduced to eight clubs.
Therefore, the Emirates Lions will play Dragons RFC in Round 1, Aviron Bayonnais and Benetton Rugby will meet in the back-to-back matches in Rounds 2 and 3, and Dragons RFC will be at home against the Emirates Lions in Round 4. See below for new fixtures
EPCR would like to thank Aviron Bayonnais, Benetton Rugby, Dragons RFC, Emirates Lions, the Leagues and broadcast partners for their co-operation in rearranging the fixtures, and wishes everyone connected with Wasps and Worcester Warriors well for the future.
