Australian NRL (National rugby league) confirms 4 tems for historic Las Vegas double-header in 2024
The NRL has revealed the four clubs that will contest the historic double-header in Las Vegas next year.
Brisbane, Manly, South Sydney and the Sydney Roosters were selected by the NRL following what the league described as a "competitive process".
The matches will be part of the premiership's season-opening round.
"The 2024 Las Vegas matches will form part of an exciting 'Australia Week' in Las Vegas where we will be showcasing rugby league and Australia to the US market," NRL chief executive Andrew Abdo said in a statement.
"We are now working collaboratively with the four clubs to finalise arrangements for the proposed matches in Las Vegas and make this a blockbuster event for fans by maximising travel, attendance and enjoyment of a unique rugby league experience.
"Rugby league will be on a stage which the sport has simply never been on before and we look forward to giving all clubs the opportunity in coming years."
The double-header will be played at the 65,000-seat capacity Allegiant Stadium, which is the home venue for the NFL's Las Vegas Raiders.
