Own a virtual piece of the Tannadice turf!
United supporters are being offered the opportunity to own a digital piece of the hallowed Tannadice turf following the launch of an innovative new partnership with Sportli!
Through Sportli’s unique platform, fans can now purchase and own virtual sections of the pitch at The CalForth Construction Arena at Tannadice Park. Each virtual area represents a real-life segment of the stadium, offering fans a new way to connect with the club and their favourite players.
Each digital piece is owned for 12 months from the date of purchase - priced at just £29.99
Dundee United heroes Sean Dillon and John Holt were on hand to help launch the partnership!
Sean Dillon, said, "Sportli is a brilliant idea. It enhances the connection with the supporters massively and allows them to feel part of the action here at the stadium!"
John Holt, added, “I genuinely think this product is great for Dundee United fans. I’m glad to see we are the first Premiership club to seize on this initiative, and it means supporters around the world can feel that sense of ownership”.
Dundee United fans not only receive an immediate digital e-certificate anywhere in the world, but also a physical framed certificate – which can be shipped globally, with all UK shipping free. Each certificate contains a QR code, which allows you to scan and zoom in on your own square of the pitch using Google satellite view.
Gordon Stevenson, Sportli founder, commented: "Owning a virtual patch of Tannadice is more than just a novelty — it's about connecting fans to the heart of local football in Dundee. This platform allows supporters to feel a deeper connection to the pitch where so many unforgettable moments have happened. It's a way for fans to show their passion and be part of the legacy of Dundee United. With Sportli.org, we're giving fans a unique chance to claim their own piece of football history, bringing them closer to the game they love and helping to support our clubs for future generations."
Mark Cunningham, Head of Commercial and Sponsorship, added, “We are excited to collaborate with Sportli on this pioneering project! Not only does this enhance our fan engagement, but also it allows supporters to become a part of the club’s story in a new and innovative way.”
