Date and kick-off change for Connacht v Scarlets fixture

Rob LloydNews

Adjustments have been made to the Round 2 BKT United Rugby Championship game involving Connacht and Scarlets.

To facilitate the on-going redevelopment of Connacht’s Dexcom Stadium, the Irish province’s fixture with Scarlets has been moved out of its original Friday night slot on October 3.

The game will now take place on Saturday, October 4 at 13:45 at Dexcom Stadium, Galway and with TG4 acting as host broadcaster.

The move is necessary to support on-going work at the venue and provide the best possible experience for fans of both teams attending the game.

URC would also like to express its thanks to TG4 for facilitating the scheduling change.

Confirmed change:

R2: Connacht v Scarlets

Dexcom Stadium, Galway
