Venues and kick off times have been confirmed for the July series when the Black Ferns take on England in three Tests.

• SKY to screen first Test live
• First Black Ferns home series since 2007

The Tests are the first to be played at home by the Black Ferns since 2007 when the team played Australia in a two Test series.

The Black Ferns play England as follows:

• Saturday 13 July – Eden Park, Auckland, 5.05pm
• Tuesday 16 July – Waikato Stadium, Hamilton, 7.00pm
• Saturday 20 July – ECOLight Stadium, Pukekohe, 2.35pm

Ticket information for the other two Tests is available from the Waikato Rugby Union and Counties Manukau Rugby Football Union respectively.

A 26 strong Black Ferns squad will be announced in early June following trials in late May.

The series is the last in a three year Test series agreement with the Rugby Football Union.
