Activation will include branding across clubs’ playing kit, matchday environments, broadcast highlights, scoreboards, player of the match activations and league content across social channels. BOYLE Sports will also launch a responsible gambling awareness initiative across NIFL clubs, using matchday and digital platforms to promote safer betting information and conversations.
Vlad Kaltenieks, CEO of BOYLE Sports, said: “Football in Northern Ireland has real momentum and we’re proud to deepen our partnership with the Northern Ireland Football League at such an important time for the League.
“Becoming Title Partner across the Premiership, Championship and Women’s Premiership reflects our belief in the clubs, supporters and communities that make the game so strong. This partnership gives us the opportunity to support that growth, enhance fan experience and use our platform to positively engage with fans and the wider football community.”
Gerard Lawlor, Chief Executive Officer of the Northern Ireland Football League, added: “We are delighted to extend our relationship with BOYLE Sports through this landmark title partnership. This is a major commercial moment for NIFL and reflects the growing strength and ambition of our competitions. BOYLE Sports has already shown real commitment to football in Northern Ireland, and this agreement will deliver meaningful value across our clubs, competitions and communities.”
