2020 Super Rugby Aotearoa set for kick-off

Following the suspension of the 2020 Super Rugby season, the newly-created Investec Super Rugby Aotearoa will see the five New Zealand-based Super Rugby clubs play each another home and away.

The Blues, Chiefs, Crusaders, Highlanders and Hurricanes will battle it out from Saturday 13th June, with two matches every weekend at 5.05pm on Saturdays and 3.05pm on Sundays (New Zealand time).

Matches will be played in closed stadiums until the NZ Government advises an approach to managing mass gatherings in controlled venues that will allow fans to return.
