Ultras Group
Birkirkara Ultras 1997 (BU97) was founded in 25 February 1997, when a group of loyal Birkirkara supporters who had the ultras mentality in them, decided to rally all the supporters and form a reliable group. The aim was to give constant support during all Birkirkara matches in Malta, and in UEFA competitions. The group started off with just a few fags, but now it has grown to a large group. This group organises the support in every match, using banners, flags, and continuous support by clapping and whistling. The group is in no way connected to Birkirkara FC, and is a free independent group. No funds have ever been given to the ultras group by the club. Funds are made by selling merchandise and donations from members.

Famous quotes containing the word group:
“If the Russians have gone too far in subjecting the child and his peer group to conformity to a single set of values imposed by the adult society, perhaps we have reached the point of diminishing returns in allowing excessive autonomy and in failing to utilize the constructive potential of the peer group in developing social responsibility and consideration for others.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
