Sixways Stadium was opened in 1975. It has gradually been transformed into a fully enclosed stadium, including a 3G pitch, and now has a capacity of 11,499. As well as Rugby Union, the stadium has also hosted finals in the British American Football Championships.

This is the second year that the Challenge Cup match has taken place here at Sixways, with King’s School having won 3-2 last year. Only the west side of the stadium was open, but with a four figure crowd present, two blocks of seating were opened up behind the north goal. Unusually, with the match finishing all square, rather than extra time or penalties to decide the winner, the cup was retained by King’s.
