The Dublin Rebels travelled to Belgium to represent Ireland with three Belfast Trojans players Neil Graham, Neil Montgomery & Stuart Leckey joining their squad for the tournament. Despite defeat to the eventual winners Brussels Tigers on the first day the Rebels rallied to clinch third place with Belfast Trojan Neil Graham being named player of the tournament. 2015 season Delighted with the turn around in fortunes since the league defeat in 2014 the Trojans confirmed Mark McGrath as the permanent head coach. Within the Trojan camp the focus was placed on increasing competition both on the pitch and on the training field, with that in mind the Trojans secured a high-profile friendly match against the East Kilbride Pirates, one of the elite teams in BAFA. The Trojans made the trip to Glasgow on 11 April and held the Pirates close until the final minutes, narrowly missing the chance to level the game before the Pirates would go on to score a crucial touchdown after the two-minute warning to defeat the Trojans 24–14. All in all it was a successful exercise for the Trojans, they had proven that they could compete at the top levels of BAFA and having completed their first game outside Ireland it gave the organisation confidence for future trips to Europe. Domestically the Trojans continued their dominance. Eight league fixtures yielded eight wins and a fourth consecutive SBC Northern Division crown. Shamrock Bowl Playoffs For the first time SBC teams were allowed to apply to host the semi-final double header and the Trojans were granted the right to host the event. On a rain sodden day in Belfast, watched by hundreds of spectators, the Trojans once again faced the UL Vikings and typically of contests between these two teams it was a close affair with the Trojans coming out narrowly on top, notably Trojans top scorer WR David Richardson was ejected from the game and was duly suspended for the next two top flight games. A fourth Shamrock Bowl appearance was secured. Shamrock Bowl XXIX With Trinity College defeating the Dublin Rebels in the other playoff Shamrock Bowl XXIX would be a repeat of the previous years bowl. Trinity were a constant threat but the Trojans would rally and go on to win the game 28–14. The Trojans became only the second team to win four consecutive Shamrock Bowls in the modern era.
