We’re delighted to announce that The Maverick, Belfast’s premier LGBTQ+ bar and entertainment venue, is joining the Azlans as our main sponsor for the 2024/25 season. This partnership marks a significant step forward for our team, bringing new opportunities and support that will enhance our presence both on and off the pitch.

As our main kit sponsor, The Maverick’s logo will proudly adorn our playing kit throughout the season, symbolising a shared commitment to inclusivity, diversity and community. But this partnership goes beyond just a logo. The Maverick’s sponsorship will directly contribute to us continuing to provide toward the club, ensuring our players have access to world-class facilities and resources.

In addition to supporting our team’s development, the partnership with The Maverick’s will also help us continue our mission to promote inclusive rugby across Northern Ireland. Rugby is a sport for everyone, and with The Maverick by our side, we’re more equipped than ever to break down barriers and encourage participation from all walks of life.

At the Azlans, we believe that rugby is more than just a game — we're a community. With The Maverick as our sponsor, we’re excited to continue building that community, fostering an environment where everyone feels welcome and valued.
