The combination of web3 and sports has a lot of potential for business development, and several sports clubs have partnered with fintechs and web3 start-ups to exploit these opportunities. This evolution is particularly noticeable in Europe in soccer but also in the United States in basketball or baseball. Rugby will be the next sport to benefit from the advantages of web3 on American soil thanks to a major partnership between two major players: Major League Rugby and OVAL3.

Major League Rugby is a professional sports league representing North America's highest level of rugby competition. Founded in 2018, the league enters its sixth season this year and continues to experience significant growth and momentum. In fact, the league has grown from seven teams in 2018 to 12 teams in 2023, including 11 from the U.S. and one based in Canada, with a skill level that continues to grow exponentially year after year, thanks to the inclusion of top foreign talent in the league. New pathways to professional rugby have been created for youth, including the Collegiate Draft, which develops initiatives around rugby with participation from all teams. These advances bode well for attracting new fans as the United States prepares to host the Rugby World Cup in 2031.

OVAL3 is a brand specializing in the web3 and fantasy rugby sector. The brand was created in 2022 by Bamg Sports, a leading company in its sector, which designed and developed Fantasy Rugby World, a game that brings together more than 40,000 users worldwide. For OVAL3, Bamg Sports has partnered with prestigious personalities and companies in the tech and rugby industries,
