THE UNITED RUGBY Championship games involving South African sides travelling to Ireland have been rescheduled to the last weekend of February. 

The games against the Irish provinces were due to take place in January but have now been pushed back to avoid further rescheduling in the immediate calendar.

The URC have also announced that the postponed fixtures from round 6 and 7 that were due to take place in South Africa will now be moved to the weekends of 11/12 March and 18/19 March.
