South Africa’s Springboks and New Zealand’s All Blacks have announced a new international rugby tour aimed at expanding one of the sport’s greatest rivalries to a global audience.
The tour will feature several Test matches, including a fixture in the United States, as both unions seek to grow rugby’s commercial appeal and attract new fans.
This rivalry has always captured the imagination of rugby supporters, and taking it to new markets is an exciting opportunity for the game,” said Mark Alexander, president of SA Rugby.
The Springboks and All Blacks are among the most successful teams in rugby history and have contested many of the sport’s most memorable matches.
