Last weekend, the Lisbon University Stadium was buzzing with excitement as the 15th edition of Dove Men+Care Portugal Rugby Youth Festival took place. This was a two-day event that saw 95 teams and 2800 athletes gather to compete in 300 matches, spread out across seven pitches.

The Portugal Rugby Youth Festival is a popular annual rugby tournament that has been held in Lisbon since 2009. It is one of the largest youth rugby events in Europe, attracting teams from all over the world to compete in a friendly, competitive atmosphere.

PRYF’s 15th edition will count on a notable ambassador: Philippe Sella, a unique talented former rugby player who held the record for most international appearances until beaten by Jason Leonard.

Sponsorship is a global phenomenon with a significant presence in all regions of the world, with about 70 percent of global investment in sponsorship going to the sports sector.

What a great event!

In total, there were more than 130 rugby matches in the 13th edition of the Portugal Rugby Youth Festival, played in five fields at the Lisbon University Stadium.

The Portugal Rugby Youth Festival (PRYF), the greatest youth rugby tournament in Europe, ended this past Sunday afternoon with all the categories' finals.
