Cheetahs staying in Amsterdam for EPCR Challenge Cup

EPCR has confirmed that Amsterdam will once again host the Toyota Cheetahs for the upcoming pool stage of 2025/26 EPCR Challenge Cup.

Invited to take part in the competition and in line with the requirement to have a European base, the South African franchise will play its designated “home” matches at the NRCA Stadium. The Toyota Cheetahs will face Stade Français Paris on Saturday 13 December before taking on Ulster Rugby on Sunday 11 January.

This will mark the third consecutive season in which Rugby Netherlands provides the Toyota Cheetahs with a European base, giving Dutch fans and the expatriate community the chance to enjoy top-level international club rugby.
