The BKT Fan Games have returned! This successful format, created by BKT — a leading manufacturer of Off-Highway tires and Title Sponsor of the championship — is dedicated to rugby fans during the pre-match festivities of the BKT United Rugby Championship.

The BKT stadium tour across the UK and Ireland consists of 8 stages. It kicked off with the championship launch at Scotstoun Stadium on 26 September and continued with the match between Ulster and Vodacom Bulls on 11 October at the Affidea Stadium in Belfast.

BKT will bring fan engagement games and activities to dedicated areas in five more stadiums, building excitement among rugby fans during the pre-match build-up with fun “oval ball” challenges, before concluding with the grand finale during the Playoffs at the end of the season.

Once again, BKT proves its commitment to fans across every sport by providing memorable moments to experience with friends and families — in rugby, as in football, basketball, and all other competitions of which BKT is the proud sponsor. These activities have a clear goal: to enhance the fan experience, keeping supporters at the heart of the action with BKT.
