Due to a request from SA Rugby, the opening round Vodacom United Rugby Championship fixtures involving the South African teams will now be moved to avoid a clash with the Carling Currie Cup Final.

Originally, the DHL Stormers were due to take on the Vodacom Bulls in Cape Town and the Hollywoodbets Sharks were to host the Emirates Lions in Durban on Saturday, 21 September. These fixtures will be rescheduled sometime in February or March 2025.

The United Rugby Championship is working with SA Rugby, the home teams and host broadcasters, SuperSport, to reschedule these fixtures in order to update ticket holders and supporters as soon as possible.
