The First Half of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 by Boomerang Partners is over, and this annual affiliate tournament is moving into the Second Half. The winner of the opening stage will attend the Wimbledon Championships from June 29 to July 12, 2026, the main prize of the First Half. From June 10 to July 19, the Golden Boomerang Awards will run during one of the busiest periods in the sports calendar, with events such as the FIFA World Cup and Wimbledon Championships expected to drive audience attention throughout the stage. For the Second Half, Boomerang Partners is preparing new mechanics, the next Mystery Box draw, and the main prize of the stage – a private dinner with an AC Milan Legend.

Beyond the Moment enters the next phase

The Second Half continues the main idea behind this season’s concept, Beyond the Moment. A strong start still matters, but the tournament increasingly rewards teams that can stay active throughout the competition and react quickly to key moments in the sports calendar. With updated mechanics and a packed summer schedule ahead, even new participants still have enough time to challenge the current leaders.

The Second Half changes the pace of the tournament

The start of the Second Half changes the scoring system of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026. From June 10, each Sport FTD now brings 3 points instead of 2. This makes sports traffic even more valuable during one of the year’s busiest periods.

The stage runs alongside the FIFA World Cup and Wimbledon Championships, two events expected to generate sustained traffic throughout June and July. For affiliate teams, this creates more high-traffic periods across the calendar before the tournament enters its final stretch.

New mechanics keep the competition open

The Second Half brings new mechanics for teams joining the tournament or increasing activity during the stage. Participants entering the competition during the first 14 days of the stage will receive double points through the WELCOME BOOST mechanic until the bonus period ends.

Combined with the updated scoring system and major sports events during the stage, this gives both current participants and new teams more opportunities to close the gap and compete for the leading positions.

Boomerang Partners will also continue the Mystery Box series during the Second Half. After the first draw in the opening stage of the tournament, Mystery Box #2 will now go to 9 randomly selected active participants. This keeps additional rewards open to both long-term participants and teams that joined the competition more recently.

The main prize of the Second Half will be a private dinner with an AC Milan Legend in August 2026, continuing Boomerang Partners’ collaboration with the Club as an Official Regional Partner.

Kristina Shkredova, Affiliate Team Lead at Boomerang Partners, commented: “Closing the first stage doesn’t mean the main race is decided. The Second Half changes the tournament’s pace completely: Sport FTDs are now worth more, the sports calendar becomes even more intense, and teams still have enough space to move up quickly. We’ve already seen how competitive this season has become, but summer is where the pressure really starts. For some teams, this will be the moment to defend their position. For others, it’s the best chance to break into the fight.”

The Second Half of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 is now underway. As the summer sports season accelerates, affiliate teams still have time to stay active in the competition, use the updated mechanics, and improve their standing before the tournament reaches its decisive stage. Current standings, tournament updates, and registration details for both existing and new participants are available on the official Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 website. It’s TIME TO WIN THE TITLE.

Boomerang Partners, an Official Regional Partner of AC Milan, has delivered the main prize of its completed TIME TO WIN affiliate tournament. It ran from February 12 to March 31, 2026, with 57 affiliate teams taking part. Two winning teams travelled to Milan for a three-day programme built around the Club. The winners attended AC Milan v Juventus at San Siro Stadium, visited Casa Milan and the Mondo Milan Museum, and completed the trip with an exclusive visit to Milanello Sports Centre powered by Clivet.

Matchday at San Siro opened the three-day programme

The programme began on April 26 with AC Milan v Juventus at San Siro Stadium. The winning teams arrived at the stadium ahead of kick-off and were met by an AC Milan representative, who guided the group through the matchday process.

Before the match, the guests were taken to the pitchside area to watch the teams warming up. The partners had time to take photos and videos from close to the field. After the warm-up, they watched the match from their seats and experienced the atmosphere of one of the key fixtures of the Serie A calendar. The group also had access to the hospitality lounge with food and drinks before and during the match.

Inside Casa Milan: history, trophies, and hospitality

On April 27, the programme continued at Casa Milan, where the group joined a guided Mondo Milan Museum tour in English. The tour covered AC Milan’s history, trophies, and key achievements, giving partners more context after the matchday experience at San Siro Stadium.

After the Mondo Milan Museum tour, the winners had time to visit the Casa Milan Store. The hospitality part of the day continued with snacks and drinks arranged for the group. The partners also received AC Milan shirts, which became a pleasant surprise during the visit.

The final day brought winners to Milanello

On April 28, the winners visited Milanello Sports Centre powered by Clivet, AC Milan’s legendary training base. The group was welcomed in the hospitality area before starting a tour of the facility, including the training fields and facilities used by the team.

Daniele Massaro, Club Ambassador and former AC Milan player, also joined the group at Milanello. He spoke with the guests and signed autographs. After the tour, the partners watched the team training session and joined an autograph session with the players. They also had time to speak with them, take photos, and have AC Milan shirts signed.

For the winning teams, Milanello was the strongest part of the programme. It gave them access to a setting usually closed to the public and direct contact with the Club, its players, and its training environment.

Liliia Sudachenko, Affiliate Team Lead at Boomerang Partners, who joined the winners during the trip, commented: “The trip went very well, and the feedback from partners was extremely positive. The programme was rich and very well organized, but balanced enough for everyone to enjoy all three days in Milan without feeling exhausted. The strongest emotions came from the pitchside access before AC Milan v Juventus, the warm-up at San Siro, the visit to Milanello, and the opportunity to meet the players, take photos, and get autographs. For us, the main result was stronger relationships with partners and a higher level of trust in Boomerang Partners. Everyone genuinely enjoyed the time in Milan, and for us that reaction was the best confirmation of the value of this prize.”
