The history of the Bucs UK
The Bucs UK were formed in December 1984 with an initial six members. Since that date, we have been officially recognised by the Buccaneer franchise and have enjoyed a fantastic working relationship with them in terms of game tickets, information, merchandise and support.

The main function of the club for many years was its' monthly magazine, "There's Always Next Year". But after 197 issues, we switched to a website and BUCPOWER.COM was born on January 5, 2002. It quickly established itself as the leading NFL-fan site on either side of the Atlantic and continues to grow in terms of information and features on a daily basis.

The club now boasts members all across the British Isles and helps to arrange game tickets at Raymond James Stadium, produces its own range of club merchandise, and has regular meetings and events around the country.

It is a fan club for the fans run by the fans.
We have written a review of the Bucs UK with stories from the 24-year history of the club. How it all began, who was involved and some of the memorable moments of the organisation. Pictures of the club magazine, trips to Tampa and touchdowns at Wembley - it's all here.
