Leyton Orient’s Official Stadium Naming Rights Partner, BetWright, has introduced a thrilling new contest for supporters attending home games: the Bangers N’Cash Crossbar Challenge, with a top prize of up to £25,000 on offer.
At each home fixture this season, one over-18 ticket holder will be picked at random to take part. They’ll head onto the pitch at half-time and try to strike the crossbar with a single kick. The reward for success is the current prize pot, which begins at £3,000 for the first match. If won, the pot resets to £1,000; if not, it increases by £1,000 with each unclaimed round, up to a total of £25,000. Even if they fail to hit the target, fans won’t leave empty-handed.
Instead, they’ll choose from three sealed envelopes, each containing a different prize: A second shot at the crossbar, a Leyton Orient club shop gift card or a Leyton Orient shirt.
The BetWright Bangers N’Cash Crossbar Challenge makes its debut this Saturday (9th August) when the O’s return to action at The BetWright Stadium against Wigan.
“We wanted to give fans a real moment under the floodlights”
Speaking on the initiative, Yarry Troshchey, Chief Marketing Officer at BetWright, said: “We’re not here to be a shadow sponsor. Our aim is to be part of the club’s matchday rhythm, showing up, engaging with supporters, and creating experiences that live beyond just the branding.
“This initiative brings tension, theatre, and gives fans a real moment under the floodlights.
“We’re passionate about bringing energy to the BetWright Stadium experience, and nothing brings a crowd together like a half-time crossbar banger.”
The BetWright Bangers N’Cash Crossbar Challenge is open to home ticket holders aged 18+.
