  • Sports Hub Launches Ticket Sales for Super Rugby 2018
    SPORTS HUB LAUNCHES TICKET SALES FOR SUPER RUGBY 2018 Singapore, 29 March 2018 – The Singapore Sports Hub today announced that tickets for the 2018 Super Rugby match to be played in Singapore will go on sale on 1 April 2018, Sunday at 10am. The match will take place on 30 June 2018, Saturday, at the National Stadium, where Singapore’s adopted home team, HITO-Communications SUNWOLVES will play against South Africa’s BULLS. Members of the public can enjoy an early-bird discount of 15 percent for Category 1 and 2 tickets from 1 April to 31 May 2018. The match on 30 June 2018 is the only game in Singapore this year, and it will be the second time the SUNWOLVES take on the BULLS in Singapore. The last time when both teams played against each other was in 2016, when SUNWOLVES was defeated by a small margin of 27-30. “The team is excited to play in Singapore again this year. Besides familiar faces such as Edward Quirk, Harumichi Tatekawa, Shota Horie, Fumiaki Tanaka and Sam Wykes, fans can look forward to the return of Akihito Yamada, who scored a hat-trick against the Cheetahs in 2016 at the National Stadium, as well as new faces including Michael Leitch, Hosea Saumaki and Lomano Lemeki. We hope that fans can come and support us as we continue to strive towards earning our first win in our second home, ” said Jamie Joseph, SUNWOLVES Head Coach.
