Ulster Add Northampton Fixture To Pre-Season Schedule

Ulster Add Northampton Fixture To Pre-Season Schedule

Ulster have today announced that they will travel to Franklin’s Gardens to play English club Northampton Saints in a pre-season game on Friday, August 25.

The sides also met before the 2016/17 season got underway, with Ulster sealing a hugely entertaining 29-19 win thanks to tries from Louis Ludik, Charles Piutau, Rob Herring and Jacob Stockdale.

Northampton Saints, who have 19 internationals on their roster including British & Irish Lions Courtney Lawes and George North, will be an ideal hit-out for Les Kiss’ Ulster squad just one week prior to the start of the GUINNESS PRO12 season. Tickets for the game can be accessed directly from Northampton Saints.
