LoughTec Announces Strategic Sponsorship of the Belfast Trojans

From Feb 2026 LoughTec has entered into a multi-year partnership with the Belfast Trojans American Football Club as their principal title sponsor. This agreement positions LoughTec as a partner to the organisation and supporting the continued development of the Belfast Trojans and American Football in Northern Ireland.

The sponsorship forms part of LoughTec’s commitment to strengthening local sport, fostering community engagement and aligning with high-performance organisations that share our focus on discipline, resilience and continuous improvement. The Trojans have been a defining force within Irish American Football for over a decade, and the partnership reflects the shared values of both organisations.

 For LoughTec, supporting the Belfast Trojans extends beyond brand placement. Performance in modern business and performance in elite sport share a common focus on preparation, defensive strategy, teamwork and execution. The partnership provides a platform for community engagement and also creates strategic opportunities for brand visibility and the promotion of cyber resilience across Northern Ireland.

American Football in Northern Ireland continues to expand, driven by volunteer commitment and player dedication. LoughTec’s sponsorship enables the Belfast Trojans to invest in coaching, equipment, gameday operations, insurance and league participation etc, helping to sustain the sport’s growth at both grassroots and competitive levels. We are proud to support a sport and culture that promotes discipline, teamwork and personal development for athletes of all ages, backgrounds and abilities.

"On behalf of the entire Belfast Trojans organisation, I am delighted to welcome LoughTec as our new principal and title sponsor. This partnership marks a significant milestone for our club and for the continued growth of American Football across Northern Ireland.

 LoughTec’s reputation as a leader in cybersecurity, resilience and high performance operations makes them an ideal partner for the Trojans. Our sport demands discipline, preparation and teamwork—qualities that sit at the heart of both organisations. To have a company that not only recognises those values but actively invests in them is a tremendous endorsement of the work our players, coaches and volunteers put in year after year.

 This multi year commitment will have a transformative impact on our programme. It enables us to strengthen our coaching structures, enhance player development, improve gameday operations and ensure long term sustainability for the club at both senior and youth levels. Most importantly, it supports our mission to make American Football accessible to athletes of all ages, backgrounds and abilities across the community.

The Trojans have always believed that sport can be a powerful force for personal growth and social connection. LoughTec’s investment reinforces that belief and helps us continue building an environment where athletes can challenge themselves, develop confidence and experience the unique camaraderie our sport offers.

Mark McGrath General Manager Belfast Trojans American Football Club commented:  “We are proud to align with a Northern Ireland company that shares our ambition, our standards and our commitment to excellence. Together, we look forward to elevating the profile of American Football, strengthening community engagement and showcasing what can be achieved when business and sport work side by side.

As we celebrate our 20th anniversary we are excited for the journey ahead and grateful to the entire LoughTec team for their trust and support. We build and grow together."

Adrian Bell CCO LoughTec commented:  “Athletes and organisations operating at a high level understand the importance of preparation, discipline and resilience. Those values translate directly into cybersecurity and business continuity which are key pillars of LoughTec's business operational model, strategy and delivery. Supporting the Belfast Trojans allows us to invest in the Northern Ireland community and align with a team that reflects the standards and mindset we expect inside modern SME and enterprise businesses. LoughTec and the Belfast Trojans both celebrate our 20th anniversary this year and we are delighted to partner with their staff, players and fans”
