The Premiership is considering bringing in sections purely for away fans to heighten the atmosphere at top-flight matches.
Traditionally crowds have been unsegregated and, while mixing with opposition fans is one of rugby’s attractions, it is thought that dedicated, concentrated away areas may encourage more noise.
“There are a number of clubs that are very keen to engage on that,” said Premiership Rugby’s chief growth officer Rob Calder.
“We’ve talked to them about identifying areas and getting the pricing, and communication right.”
