Ayrshire Bulls will play Glasgow Warriors on Friday evening [2nd September] at Caledonian Stadium in Inverness as part of Glasgow’s pre-season campaign.
Bulls were due to play Southern Knights in Melrose on Saturday, the round five FOSROC Super6 fixture will now be played on Saturday 10 September at The Greenyards.
Following this afternoon’s withdrawal of Glasgow’s original pre-season opponents Worcester Warriors, due to ongoing financial issues at the English Premiership club, it allows a further opportunity for Bulls players to be immersed into the professional rugby environment to play a game against a Glasgow side preparing for their own URC campaign.
Scottish Rugby’s Technical Director Steven Gemmell said: “Scottish Rugby and Super6 are glad to be able to support Glasgow Warriors in fulfilling the fixture in Inverness tomorrow evening.
“After a good performance last weekend it’s great that Ayrshire Bulls will have the opportunity to test themselves against the next playing level in Scotland. Thanks must also go to Southern Knights in being able to support this fixture by moving their home fixture to next weekend.”
