OVAL3: Where Fantasy Rugby Takes on New Heights of Ambition
Crypto rewards and NFT collecting are making fantasy sports games even more enticing than their traditional counterparts. The number of offerings providing an immersive digital experience is on the rise. Among them is OVAL3, a unique fantasy rugby platform.
OVAL3 is a venture designed for rugby enthusiasts that promises top-tier, immersive experiences. It's expected to rival the likes of Sorare, a popular fantasy simulator for football, basketball, and baseball.

The essence of OVAL3 lies in its collectible, licensed NFTs that can be purchased, amassed, sold, and traded. They depict over 2,300 players from 42 clubs across the world's leading leagues. The project has fostered exclusive partnerships with the French National Rugby League (LNR) and the American Major League Rugby (MLR).
This partnership with OVAL3 is key to engage with our fans and invite new people to our exciting game, and to our efforts to position the MLR among the most forward-thinking sports properties in North America,says MLR CEO Nic Benson.

Every user gets to test their mettle as a club manager. From their personal NFT collection, they must assemble a team of five athletes who will compete in free contests against teams managed by others worldwide. Each card presents player stats derived from real-match performances, including impact, attack, defense, skills, and strength.

The overall NFT collection grows daily. For now, there are 150 cards, broken down by rarity:
- 105 – Limited;
- 32 – Rare;
- 10 – Super Rare;
- 3 – Unique.
Weekly competition victors are rewarded with various perks, ranging from new digital player cards, resource cards, and boosters, to $OVAL3 tokens, match tickets, merchandise, and other real-life experiences.
The NFT marketplace's performance in its first week post-launch pleasantly surprised even the creators of OVAL3. In just seven days, 2,000 cards were sold, netting $35,000. The success continued, with revenue from NFT sales exceeding $2,000 over the following two months.
Currently, this ambitious project is just embarking on its global expansion. In addition to the existing sporting partnerships, OVAL3 representatives aim to collaborate with other renowned rugby organizations wishing to join the realm of fantasy sports.
We are very proud to have been chosen by Major League Rugby. Our ambition is to sign, in the near future, new leagues, not only in Europe but also on other continents, in order to offer a never before seen and ever richer experience,comments Tony Bouquier, CEO of the Web3 gaming startup.
