Back for Another Season with Premier Sports
Premier Sports and Limitless Broadcast teamed up once again for the 2025/26 season, delivering remote production coverage of the EPCR Challenge Cup across the UK. Building on the success of previous seasons, our teams delivered consistent, broadcast-quality rugby coverage from venues large and small, including locations with no traditional broadcast connectivity.
Using "The Limitless Way" - our resilient and scalable remote production model - Match and VT galleries were operated from the Limitless Remote Production Hub, while on-site camera crews and production specialists captured the action at every venue. The result: uninterrupted, professional rugby coverage for Premier Sports audiences, whatever the conditions on-site.
