Isuzu has announced an extension to its title partnership of The FA Vase and The FA Trophy, continuing its support for non-league football until the end of the 2027/28 season.

The news comes off the back of another successful Non-League Finals Day at Wembley Stadium, where Whitstable Town lifted the FA Vase, and Aldershot Town secured the FA Trophy in front of a crowd of 38,600.

The renewed deal cements Isuzu’s role as a long-term supporter of grassroots football. The Japanese pickup brand has been the title sponsor since the 2022/23 season and will now continue for at least three more seasons, with a focus on championing the passion, commitment and community spirit that define non-league football.

“After three fantastic years of celebrating non-league football, we are very proud to announce our continued title partnership,” said George Wallis, head of marketing at Isuzu UK. “We recognise the huge passion involved in non-league football for both the fans and their communities across the UK. Through these competitions we continue to be the driving force behind non-league football.”

The partnership isn’t limited to the pitch, either. Isuzu continues to encourage local football sponsorship through its network of more than 90 UK dealers, many of which back local sides in their communities.

James Gray, commercial director at The FA, added: “We have built a strong relationship over the past three seasons, with Isuzu delivering on its commitment to promote non-league football, and we are looking forward to another three seasons of the Isuzu FA Vase and Isuzu FA Trophy.”

The Isuzu FA Vase and Isuzu FA Trophy finals will remain key fixtures in the football calendar, offering clubs from Steps 1 to 6 of the National League System the chance to walk out at Wembley and compete for national silverware.
