KGM Motors UK is proud to confirm its role as headline sponsor of Tradie FC versus Lee Trundle’s All Stars, taking place on 22nd March 2026 at Trefelin BGC, Ynys Park with the game kicking off at 1pm.
Presented by Tradie Events, this fixture is more than just a football match. It’s a growing movement, uniting sport, social influence, and solidarity to raise awareness and vital funds for mental health in the construction industry.
With over £8,000 already raised through previous events, Tradie Events continues to shine a spotlight on wellbeing within the trades - encouraging open conversations and meaningful community support in a sector where mental health challenges remain significant.
The headline clash will see Tradie FC take on a celebrity All Stars team captained by Lee Trundle, KGM Motors UK’s brand ambassador. A long-standing supporter of grassroots football and community-driven initiatives, Trundle will lead a side featuring a growing line-up of influencers, tradespeople and special guests such as KGM’s very own Clive Messenger – sales director for the brand. Further names are set to be announced in the coming weeks.
Kevin Griffin, managing director at KGM Motors UK, said: “We’re proud to headline sponsor this fantastic initiative. Mental health awareness within the construction industry is an issue that deserves real visibility and action. Tradie FC vs Lee Trundle’s All Stars is a brilliant example of how football can bring communities together to support an important cause.”
