Ulster Rugby, Heineken Champions Cup Match Day Programme - v Northampton Saints

Cheslin Kolbe last season, Juan Imhoff in 2019/20
and Maxime Médard in 2018/19. Consider the
star quality of the last three overall winners of
the Champions Try of the Round and you know
that the competition to find the best try of this
Heineken Champions Cup season will feature
some of the biggest names in the world game.
Kolbe’s was awarded the accolade in 2020/21
for a breathtaking score against Ulster Rugby in
Round 1. Taking a pass from Thomas Ramos, the
former Stade Toulousain wing beat two Ulster
defenders, kicked over another and collected
after two bounces to slide over the whitewash in
remarkable fashion.
Fans were given the opportunity to vote for
the best tries selected from Rounds 1 and 2,
the Round of 16, the quarter-finals, as well as
Juan Cruz Mallia’s score during the final at
Twickenham, before Kolbe emerged as the
overall winner.
Last season, the Champions Try of the Round
competition was largely dominated by players
from TOP 14 clubs. What will happen this
season? Which outstanding players will make
the difference? Which tries will get the fans’ vote
along with the verdict of a panel of renowned
rugby experts.
Each Monday following match weekends, a
shortlist of five tries will be selected by EPCR
and opened to public vote with fans having the
chance to win some great prizes.
This will be the perfect opportunity to watch
the best Heineken Champions Cup tries over
and over again and to vote for The One to Win.
