England’s Red Roses will play two home internationals, taking on USA on September 3 and Wales on September 14. 

The USA game will take place at Exeter’s Sandy Park and the Wales fixture at Ashton Gate in Bristol. Tickets are available here. 

It will be a fourth visit to Sandy Park for the Red Roses and a particularly special occasion for the USA squad, who have a number of players in the Exeter Chiefs’ ranks. England v Wales will be a midweek fixture and the first time the Red Roses have played at Ashton Gate. 

Speaking to englandrugby.com, head coach Simon Middleton said: "Sandy Park has got a special place in our hearts. The club and the crowd have really embraced us and every time we’ve been there, they’ve put on a sensational show.    

"Equally, Bristol’s set-up is second to none. It’s another rugby union hotbed with fantastic tradition, staunch support and it’s great to take a game there and go to another venue we know is massively passionate about our sport.    

"These matches are important for all three teams’ preparation before heading out to New Zealand and will be exciting contests. We know the people of Devon and the West Country will come out in their numbers and hopefully we can put on a show."
