Boomerang Partners announces the launch of the exclusive TIME TO WIN tournament for affiliates
Boomerang Partners announces the launch of an exclusive affiliate tournament set to run during a crucial period of the 2026 sports season. This competition will be held under the TIME TO WIN concept until 31 March. This is a strategic framework that defines Boomerang Partners’ collaboration with its Official Regional Partner, AC Milan, throughout the Year of Sports.
2026 is packed with sports tournaments, including the FIFA World Cup 2026, the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026, and many other top-tier local and global competitions. For sports-focused affiliates, this is a time rich with opportunities, and Boomerang Partners’ activation is purposefully scheduled for February-March, one of the hottest periods of the current sports season.
TIME TO WIN tournament prizes
In a recent teaser video released by Boomerang Partners, key AC Milan players Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Alexis Saelemaekers, Christian Pulisic, Adrien Rabiot, and Rafael Leão hinted that something significant would happen on 12 February. Boomerang Partners now reveals the details: 12 February marks the official launch of the TIME TO WIN tournament on the AC Milan Hub, a digital platform created as a part of the collaboration between Boomerang Partners and the Club. Prizes include trips to Milanello and match experiences for games against Juventus and Cagliari.
Each participant can unlock access to all prize draws by reaching the required point thresholds. A total of five prize categories are available within the TIME TO WIN tournament:
- Prize 1 (three sets): TIME TO WIN Merch Pack for a team of five;
- Prize 2 (three sets): AC Milan official jerseys signed by players (five jerseys per set);
- Prize 3 (one set): a trip to the AC Milan v Cagliari match for five people;
- Prize 4 (one set): a trip to the AC Milan v Juventus match, including pre-match access, for five people;
- Prize 5 (two sets): a trip to Milanello Sports Center, the heart of AC Milan, for five people.
The company has also prepared a consolation prize. These are additional points for participation in the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026, the upcoming third season of Boomerang Partners’ annual global affiliate tournament. All the TIME TO WIN tournament participants who score at least 100 points will receive them.
The mechanics of participation
The tournament will run from 12 February to 31 March 2026, representing a key activation moment within the sports season. During this period, affiliates will be able to complete tasks across multiple segments, accumulate points, and progressively unlock access to five prize draws. Eligibility for each draw is determined by the total number of points collected. The participation mechanics are simple:
- Affiliates complete tasks within specific segments (for example, SMM);
- Points are awarded for completed activities;
- In certain segments, affiliates can continue earning points in accordance with the rules.
All tasks will allow tournament participants to deeply engage with the Boomerang Partners brand, whether it’s completing SMM tasks, taking part in surveys, or collaborating on PR activities with company representatives. Affiliate teams can find details about the tasks and the points awarded for them on the AC Milan Hub, the tournament’s official platform.
The AC Milan Hub launch
The TIME TO WIN affiliate tournament is fully integrated into the AC Milan Hub. This is a dedicated web portal created as part of Boomerang Partners & AC Milan’s strategic collaboration. The Hub serves as the central platform where all key TIME TO WIN initiatives are brought together. This makes it the main entry point for affiliate teams participating in the activation. While the tournament will be the key activation for Q1 2026, the Hub will feature other partnership-related activities throughout the season. These valuable resources are an integral part of Boomerang Partners’ overall strategy while working with partners.
The AC Milan Hub is designed as a unified ecosystem that combines exclusive content, interactive mechanics, and access to Club-related experiences that go far beyond standard affiliate promotions. Through the Hub, partners and users engage with campaigns connected directly to AC Milan – from special activations and quizzes to prize draws and exclusive experiences tied to the Club.
By embedding the tournament into the AC Milan Hub, Boomerang Partners significantly increases the value of participation. Affiliates are not just competing in a standalone performance challenge, but becoming part of a large-scale collaboration with a top-tier football brand that is unavailable outside this partnership.
A practical guide for TIME TO WIN participants
One of the key advantages for affiliates participating in TIME TO WIN is access to Boomerang Partners’ analytical expertise and practical tools designed specifically for the Year of Sports. Central to this approach is the Sports Marketing & Betting Calendar 2026, presented by Boomerang Partners in January as a hands-on guide for sports-focused affiliate teams. It combines market insights and applied recommendations. Among its key elements are:
- Major tournament peaks and expected shifts in player activity;
- Regional popularity of sports across key GEOs;
- Practical guidance for pre-event, live, and post-event campaigns, aligned with different tournament phases;
- Industry trends overview.
In the context of TIME TO WIN, this expertise becomes especially relevant. The Calendar already serves as a strategic foundation for affiliates aiming to perform strongly during the activation. It will help participants approach the hot sports period not intuitively, but systematically – with a clear understanding of timing, player behavior, and market dynamics.
What is a TIME TO WIN concept
TIME TO WIN is the core strategic concept behind Boomerang Partners’ partnership with AC Milan in 2026. More than a campaign slogan, it reflects a shared mindset that defines both brands: ambition, competitiveness, and a constant drive to perform at the highest level.
TIME TO WIN was designed as a flexible, long-term concept that can be applied to different formats and moments throughout the sports season. In 2026, Boomerang Partners and AC Milan are bringing this approach to life through a series of initiatives and activations that go beyond traditional sponsorship.
Start planning your campaigns now and maximize your performance during the TIME TO WIN tournament. The countdown to 12 February has begun!

Platform pairs sportsbook simulations with a QualiBest survey on fan confidence and compares 2026 sentiment to Brazil’s 2002 campaign.
Superbet has launched “As Odds do Penta,” a data and research hub focused on Brazil’s 2026 World Cup outlook, using sportsbook-driven simulations and public opinion polling to compare the current cycle with the national team’s 2002 campaign. The initiative was announced in São Paulo in June 2026 and is hosted at termometrosuper.com.br.
According to Superbet, its sportsbook model runs predictive simulations and weighs performance metrics alongside qualitative inputs, including media coverage tone and fan engagement, to recreate historical probabilities and compare them to today’s market. “The odds in 2002 would certainly be as high as what we have now in 2026.. The scenario has several similarities: widespread distrust, a tense qualifying phase, and pressure from the press.”, said Guilherme Simantob, a statistician at Superbet.
Superbet also cited results from “Termômetro Super,” a survey commissioned from Instituto QualiBest and conducted June 4-6 with 824 internet users aged 40+ across Brazil. The company said 58% of respondents see a medium-to-high probability of a Brazil turnaround in 2026, and that 58% reported being optimistic or moderately confident based on historical parallels. The release also noted demographic splits, including higher uncertainty among women; a more negative view among Class A respondents compared to Class C; and a stronger “medium probability” view among respondents aged 61+ (44%) versus those aged 40-50 (33%).
On whether prior World Cup disappointments affect belief in a 2026 title, Superbet said 35% reported that pressure from previous defeats reduces confidence, while 22% said history shows Brazil performs strongly when expectations are low; 37% described themselves as moderately confident.
The company added that, based on its reconstruction, Brazil would have been priced at 8.50 in 2002 (which it equated to an 11% mathematical chance). For 2026, Superbet said Brazil’s title odds are around 9.50, and that the “mercado internacional” assigns the team about a 5% chance to win. Commentator Jorge Iggor, cited in the release, argued that entering without being the market favorite can reduce pressure: “Looking at the historical context and the odds themselves proves that not carrying the absolute favoritism for 2026 is a great advantage. Arriving without the weight of being the top team on the market relieves the pressure and makes the atmosphere much lighter. In 2002, the team also defied all predictions and clinical doubts about its main stars to lift the trophy.”
Superbet also highlighted what it called an experience edge in the current squad: “There is an unprecedented and favorable point for the current team. The players selected for the 2026 tournament have accumulated far more titles than the 2002 team at that time: 305 titles combined now, compared to 176 in 2002. This provides experience in big games that could be our unseen advantage.”, Simantob said. The company said the hub will update during the tournament, including additional “Termômetro” polling updates tracking changes in public confidence.

Leading sportsbook provider Altenar has announced the launch of Super Early Payout to give soccer bettors more chance to celebrate winning moments before the final whistle.
The new promotion has gone live in time for the World Cup 2026 and means bettors who back a team in eligible markets will have their bet settled as a winner as soon as their selected team takes a one-goal lead, regardless of the final result.
This is an upgrade to the popular Early Payout offer, which requires a team to lead by two goals before qualifying bets are settled. Reducing the threshold to one goal allows Super Early Payout to deliver faster wins and an even more engaging betting experience.
Operators can configure the promotion for a specific team or both teams, while also having the option to replace the standard 1X2 market for a more prominent promotional experience.
Altenar has also brought greater flexibility to promotional campaigns with improvements to the Early Payout feature, which can now be applied directly to selected events rather than entire championships, making it easier to highlight key World Cup fixtures and other high-profile matches.
The enhancement supports both two-goal and three-goal Early Payout configurations and can also be applied to one or both teams. By moving beyond championship-wide set-ups, operators can create more targeted campaigns.
Expanded markets have also enriched Altenar’s soccer coverage at major tournaments such as the World Cup. New additions allow bettors more choice when it comes to player performance, including how goals or shots were made (by foot, header, outside the box etc).
Player specials have been expanded to include substitute coverage, allowing betting opportunities to remain relevant even when the originally selected player is replaced by a substitute.
A comprehensive range of player, team and match markets are also now available for matches that go to extra time, creating additional betting opportunities during the knockout stage of tournaments such as the World Cup.
These new features follow on from the World Cup Lobby, which was recently released by Altenar as a dedicated event hub designed to enhance player engagement and streamline navigation during the upcoming tournament.
Nikos Zygouris, Head of Sportsbook Product at Altenar, said: “At Altenar, we’re focused on giving our partners the flexibility to tailor their sportsbook experience to the needs of their customers.
“Super Early Payout allows operators to offer a more engaging soccer betting proposition, while our expanded range of markets means bettors have more choice than ever when it comes to placing bets on the markets which matter most to them.
“These enhancements combine greater promotional flexibility with deeper soccer coverage, helping operators maximise engagement throughout the World Cup.”

Arnold Ash has agreed a sponsorship deal for the Arthurian League’s 2026 US Tour, which will culminate in the inaugural Transatlantic Cup on Friday 26 June in Philadelphia. The announcement was dated Friday 12th June 2026.
The Transatlantic Cup will be played during the 2026 World Cup and is framed by organisers as part of events marking 250 years of US independence. US amateur champions West Chester United SC, holders of the 2025 US Adult Soccer Association (USASA) National Amateur Cup, will host the Arthurian League representative side.
Arnold Ash’s logo will appear on the front of the touring team’s white and red England kit. The company said the headline partnership covers the full 12-day tour, including additional matches against New York Athletic Club and Boston Bolts, plus in-stadium branding at the ticketed fixture at Drexel University’s Vidal Athletic Complex and across event online and social channels.
Jon Arnold, CEO at Arnold Ash, said: “Arnold Ash has been a proud sponsor of the Arthurian League representative sides at major events before, but it doesn’t get any bigger than this. The team is hugely talented, made up of the top amateur players England has to offer and – as the best-of-the-best – reflect the Arnold Ash core principles of quality, experience and consistency.
“The World Cup is now underway, but for the next five weeks, the Transatlantic Cup is where the real action is at! We wish both England teams the best of luck stateside!”
Billy Jenkins, Manager of the Arthurian League representative team, said: “Arnold Ash’s sponsorship is hugely valuable to our team, and we are incredibly grateful for their continued backing of grassroots football.
“We are honoured to participate in the first-ever Transatlantic Cup and just like England’s professional team hope to be lifting prestigious silverware on US soil in the coming weeks.”
