Snow rugby - Saracens and Clermont match called off

By Ian Cameron
Clermont and Saracens in the Champions Cup final

Saracens have just confirmed that their round three European Rugby Champions Cup fixture versus ASM Clermont Auvergne has been postponed due to the adverse weather conditions surrounding Allianz Park.

The Club is currently liaising directly with EPCR regarding further details and fans are advised not to travel to Allianz Park.

RugbyPass understands the cancellation is due to adverse weather conditions surrounding the stadium and local transport routes and not the pitch itself.

Allianz Park has been the home of Saracens Rugby Club since 2013. The state of the art stadium, which includes an artificial pitch surface, is in fact the only stadium in the country designed and built to BREEAM Excellent standards.

However, the Harlequins Ulster match, also being staged in London, has not been called off.
