Round 17 and 18 fixtures confirmed

The dates and times for the final two regular rounds of the 2026 Premiership Women’s Rugby season have been confirmed.

The PWR returns for Round 17 on Friday 29 May after an eight-week absence for the Women’s Six Nations, with Trailfinders taking on Gloucester Hartpury.

That match kicks off at 7:30pm and is live on the BBC, while two matches take place on Saturday 30 May as Bristol Bears host Exeter Chiefs at 1pm and Harlequins take on Leicester Tigers at 2:30pm.

Both of those matches will be on PWR YouTube before Round 17 ends with Loughborough Lightning hosting Saracens at 12pm on Sunday 31 May, live on TNT Sports.

The final round of the regular season could well have plenty on the line with all four matches kicking off at the same time on the same day, 3:30pm on Sunday 7 June.

The BBC game sees Exeter Chiefs take on Sale Sharks at Sandy Park, while Gloucester Hartpury prepare for a home semi-final as they take on Bristol Bears at Kingsholm, which is live on PWR YouTube.

Also, on PWR YouTube is the local clash between Leicester Tigers and Loughborough Lightning at Mattioli Woods Welford Road, while Saracens take on Trailfinders in a London derby at the StoneX, which is live on TNT Sports.

The four teams that have booked their place in the final four will then play in semi-finals on Sunday 14 June, with the PWR Final taking place on Sunday 28 June at 3pm at Twickenham Stoop.
