Super Rugby Australia will start with the Reds vs Waratahs match on the 3rd of next month.

While Super Rugby Aotearoa competition begins this weekend Rugby Australia confirmed it has agreed on a broadcast deal with FOX SPORTS for the domestic competition.

The Reds and Waratahs match will be held at the Suncorp Stadium following which the competition will head to Canberra on July 4th as the Brumbies face the Rebels.

The Western Force will play their first game in week two of the competition, based in an east coast hub.

Teams, who will all start on zero points after the Super Rugby shutdown in March, will play each other twice each before a two-week finals series, culminating in a September 19 grand final.

The competition will be played without crowds for the immediate future unless the advice around COVID-19 restrictions changes.
