Central IT Solutions is proud to announce our partnership with Redditch United Football Club as the club’s new back-of-shirt sponsor and official cyber security partner.
As part of the partnership, we’ll be supporting the club with cyber security, data protection, and IT security services — helping strengthen and protect the technology behind the scenes at Redditch United.
Modern football clubs rely heavily on technology, from communications and operations to ticketing, online systems, and data management. Our role is to help ensure the club has the right protection, security, and support in place as the club continues to grow both on and off the pitch.
The partnership also places Central IT Solutions alongside major brands already supporting the club, including Reddit — further strengthening Redditch United’s growing commercial profile and digital presence.
As part of the partnership, Central IT Solutions will be delivering a range of managed cyber security and data protection services to the club, including:
-
WatchGuard Managed Firewall & Network Protection
Managed firewall security designed to protect the club’s network from cyber threats, unauthorised access, and malicious activity.
-

As a Redditch-based business, partnering with a club that plays such an important role within the local community is something we’re incredibly proud of. Supporting local organisations and helping them operate securely is a huge part of what we do.
Andre Campbell, Operations Director at Central IT said:
