The Ospreys are ready for the last six games of the United Rugby Championship and the race for a last eight play-off place as the campaign reaches it’s finale with the Welsh Shield at stake.
The remaining fixtures start with the Ospreys on the road facing two of the biggest names in the tournament – the Emirates Lions and the DHL Stormers – in South Africa for the first time.
Toby Booth’s side will face the two South African powerhouses with line-ups, including World Cup winners and some of the most exciting players emerging in the southern hemisphere including ex Ospreys Marvin Orie who will line up for the Stormers.
The tour to South Africa provides the Ospreys with an exciting challenge and a chance to measure how far the side has come in the inaugural URC campaign in one of rugby’s heartlands.

When the side returns from the southern hemisphere, the Ospreys face three exciting and traditional Welsh derbies,
First up, the Ospreys travel to face their big city rivals Cardiff Rugby at the Arms Park for the first time in a number of seasons as all the Welsh sides compete for the Welsh Shield and qualification for the Heineken Champions Cup.
The following week, the ‘West Wales Derby’ against the Scarlets will see the Swansea.com Stadium transformed into a unique event for every Welsh rugby supporter and a great day out for families, with a funfair, street food and craft beer stalls and live music as part of the day.
