Sharks to return in February
11:10am Tuesday 5th November 2002 in Harlequins
HARLEQUINS will once again be playing Super 12 side the Sharks from South Africa at the Stoop this season - on Tuesday February 4th, 2003, 7.45pm.
The sides met for the first time ever last February when a capacity crowd witnessed an excellent match that the Sharks won by 31-13.
Harlequins are equally delighted to announce that the Stoop will be the venue for a clash between the Sharks and the Stormers, also from South Africa, on Friday February 7th, 2003, 7.45pm. This is the first time that a fixture between two Super 12 sides will take place outside of the Southern Hemisphere.
Andy Lee, Managing Director of match organisers SportingClass, said: "The fact that the Natal Sharks are returning to our shores after their enjoyable visit earlier this year shows the great success of that trip. Added to this is the bonus of the Western Stormers coming over with them to play against each other at the Stoop."
Tickets are now available for both of these games by calling the Quins Ticketline on 0871 871 8877.
The club are once again expecting capacity crowds at both of these fixtures, but those unable to get a ticket will be able to watch the games live and exclusive on Sky Sports.
The Stormers will also be playing Zurich Premiership club the Sharks at Heywood Road on Tuesday February 4th, 2003, kick-off 7.30pm.
