Together Against Racism 🤝 In a powerful display of unity, players from BC Rytas Vilnius and Falco KC Szombathely stepped onto the court wearing matching “Together Against Racism” shirts. This symbolic moment marked the launch of our joint initiative within the Basketball Champions League to raise awareness and stand against discrimination. By using basketball’s powerful platform, we're working to raise awareness and inspire action against racism. This initiative aims to show that, while players may compete as rivals on the court, off the court, we're allies in creating an inclusive future. We can help ensure that respect and inclusion define our teams, our sports, and our society—because the only colors that matter on the court are those of the jerseys we wear. 🔴🟡

Together Against Racism - this is the topic of our November with BC Rytas Vilnius. We manage a campaign with our Basketball Champions League opponent because as a sports club we have a "job" off the court too. We are very lucky to work #together with our Lithuanian friends! The part of the project, we asked our ambassador, Benedek Váradi, to share some thoughts about racism and give some ideas, on how can we "fight" against it.

BC Rytas Vilnius and Falco KC Szombathely to Fight Racism in New Together Against All Campaign 🏀🌍 As the FIBA Champions League intensifies, Vilnius Rytas is proud to launch the Together Against All social responsibility campaign for its second year. Starting in late October and continuing through November, in collaboration with the Vilnius Archdiocese Caritas and our Basketball Champions League Group F opponent Szombathely Falco Vulcano, we're tackling one of today's most pressing global issues—racism. This initiative goes beyond the court, uniting athletes and communities to show that social issues cross borders, calling for unity and action. 🌐✊ With shared values of respect and tolerance, both Rytas and Falco Vulcano are committed to using sport as a platform to address challenging social topics. This effort stands as a call to action, encouraging all fans and community members to actively stand against discrimination. Let's support our teams and, together, create a more inclusive, respectful environment both on and off the court. Let's show that the only colors that matter are the ones on our jerseys! 🔴🟡 #TogetherAgainstAll

We opened another basketball season celebrating our achievements and setting ourselves new goals! 🏀
Over 5 million € for 24/25 fiscal year is the all-time record BC Rytas Vilnius annual budget plan. Doubled in five years. Developed sustainable revenue growth model: 1/3 income from ticket and merchandise sales 1/3 from the professional sports sponsorship program of Vilnius city 1/3 from commercial partnerships Over the last 5 years, number of annual sponsorship contracts has grown from 17 to 52. In the season opening event, made a quick survey of our leading business partners: UAB Švyturys - Utenos alus HANNER PANORAMA.LT NORFA Shift4 Payments Lithuania 7bet ADAMPOLIS GROUP Satchel Grigeo Group UAB SAKALAS Go3 So, what are the reasons for TRIPLED partnerships growth: 1. Unified and dedicated fan base 2. Transparent and accountable management 3. Developed community brand identity, dissociated from previous ownership (poor reputation business group) 4. Strategic partnerships with two leading basketball academies SKM Vilnius and VKM Basketball helping 5000 girls and boys to grow 5. Strong social responsibility campaigns and shared values And let’s not to forget - two Championship titles in last three years. After all it's all about sports!
