Sharks play 18 United Rugby Championship matches in 2026-27, 9 at home at Hollywoodbets Kings Park and 9 away, opening on Sep 26 and finishing on May 15. Every club in the league is played twice, home and away, so the list below is the whole competition seen from one side of it. The longest home run is 3 matches, from Dec 5 to Jan 2; the longest spell away is 4, from Jan 22 to Feb 27.
Kick-off times are shown in your own timezone — detected automatically, and overridable in the “Times in” control above. That is worth more here than in most leagues: Sharks's away matches are played across 4 different timezones, so a kick-off printed in the home club's clock would be the wrong time for this club's supporters roughly half the season. To see how Sharks's run compares with the rest of the league, the full grid puts all 16 clubs side by side.
