### **Australian Test referee Nic Berry will make his United Rugby Championship debut this weekend when he holds the whistle for the R11 Connacht v Glasgow Warriors game in Galway.** Over a decade long career, Berry played for Super Rugby's Queensland Reds before moving up to Europe to play for both Racing 92 & Wasps. After hanging up his boots through injury in 2012, Berry became one of a handful of officials to have both played and refereed in Super Rugby. Since then Berry has been appointed to elite fixtures at Rugby World Cup 2019 and the most recent British & Irish Lions tour to South Africa in 2021. The additional appointments for the United Rugby Championship fixtures in Round 11 have been confirmed and are available alongside the TV listings below. ### **FRIDAY, 28th JANUARY** **Ulster Rugby v Scarlets** *Kingspan Stadium, Belfast – KO 19.35 IRE & UK / 20.35 ITA / 21.35 SA* **Referee:** Jaco Peyper (SARU, 6th competition game) **AR 1:** Peter Marin (IRFU) **AR 2:** Andrew Cole (IRFU) **TMO:** Olly Hodges (IRFU) Live on: Premier Sports, SuperSport & URC TV **Dragons v Benetton Rugby** *Rodney Parade, Newport – KO 19.35 IRE & UK / 20.35 ITA / 21.35 SA* **Referee:** Andrew Brace (IRFU, 71st competition game) **AR 1:** Jason Bessant (WRU) **AR 2:** John Darcy (WRU) **TMO:** Jon Mason (WRU) Live on: BBC Wales, Mediaset, Premier Sport, SuperSport & URC TV. ### **SATURDAY, 29th JANUARY** **Emirates Lions v Vodacom Bulls** *Emirates Airlines Park, Johannesburg – KO 13.00 IRE & UK / 14.00 ITA / 15.00 SA* **Referee:** Rasta Rasivhenge (SARU, 4th competition game) **AR 1:** Aimee Barrett-Theron (SARU) **AR 2:** Griffin Colby (SARU) **TMO:** AJ Jacobs (SARU) Live on: SuperSport, Premier Sports & URC TV **Connacht Rugby v Glasgow Warriors** *The Sportsground, Galway – KO 14.55 IRE & UK / 15.55 ITA / 16.55 SA* **Referee:** Nic Berry (ARU, competition debut) **AR 1:** Stuart Gaffikin (IRFU) **AR 2:** Stuart Douglas (IRFU) **TMO:** Brett Cronan (ARU) Live on: RTÉ 2, Premier Sports, SuperSport & URC TV **Cell C Sharks v DHL Stormers** *Hollywoodbets Kings Park, Durban – KO 15.05 IRE & UK / 16.05 ITA / 17.05 SA* **Referee:** Marius van der Westhuisen (SARU, 8th competition game) **AR 1:** Cwengile Jadezweni (SARU) **AR 2:** Morne Ferreira (SARU) **TMO:** Marius Jonker (SARU) Live on: SuperSport, Premier Sport & URC TV **Zebre Parma v Munster Rugby** *Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi, Parma – KO 17.00 IRE & UK / 18.00 ITA / 19.00 SA* **Referee:** Craig Evans (WRU, 26th competition game) **AR 1:** Federico Vedovelli (FIR) **AR 2:** Maria Beatrice Benvenuti (FIR) **TMO:** Alan Falzone (FIR) Live on: Mediaset, RTÉ 2, Premier Sports, SuperSport & URC TV **Ospreys v Edinburgh Rugby** [*Swansea.com*](http://Swansea.com) *Stadium, Swansea – KO 17.15 IRE & UK / 18.15 ITA / 19.15 SA* **Referee:** Andrea Piardi (FIR, 19th competition game) **AR 1:** Gwyn Morris (WRU) **AR 2:** Mike English (WRU) **TMO:** Ian Davies (WRU) Live on: Premier Sports, SuperSport & URC TV **Cardiff Rugby v Leinster Rugby** *Cardiff Arms Park, Cardiff – KO 19.35 IRE & UK / 20.35 ITA / 21.35 SA* **Referee:** Mike Adamson (SRU, 59th competition game) **AR 1:** Adam Jones (WRU) **AR 2:** Aled Evans (WRU) **TMO:** Ben Whitehouse (WRU) Live on: S4C, TG4, Premier Sports, SuperSport & URC TV #### **NEVER MISS A MOMENT ON URC TV** URC TV is the official OTT player for the United Rugby Championship where fans can watch games live on phone, desktop or tablet and includes: - Every URC game live up to and including the final - English commentary on all games - Apps for iOS and Android to cast to TV - Full-match replays on demand - 3 and 7 minute highlight packages available on URC TV Fans around the world and in the Republic of Ireland can sign up for round passes or season passes at [www.urc.tv/plans](https://www.urc.tv/plans)
