ISUZU UK CROWN WINNER OF KICK-UP COMPETITION

Isuzu UK’s recent football competition has come to a climactic close, with the grand prize worth £1000 being awarded to winner Rosie Shipp. The competition, which ran under the tagline of IsuzuFC, saw entrants sharing videos of themselves doing as many kick-ups or ‘keepie-uppies’ as possible while tagging the video with #IsuzuFC.

Rosie Shipp, from Cornwall, won the competition with an impressive total of 62 consecutive kick-ups, earning her a £500 tools voucher from a retailer of her choice and a £500 endorsement for AFC St. Austell's Ladies team, her local non-league football club.

The Isuzu FC programme represents the newly formed Isuzu Football Community, rather than Football Club, and aims to acknowledge that a local football club can often be the heart of a community and is regularly run and supported by dedicated volunteers and local people. As the driving force behind non-league football, this is something that both Isuzu UK and the widespread Isuzu dealer network are pleased to support.

Speaking on the competition, George Wallis, Head of Marketing at Isuzu UK, commented: “We were blown away by the level of engagement throughout this competition, and it’s so refreshing to see passionate individuals, like Rosie, who genuinely care about making a difference in their local community. IsuzuFC is all about bringing people together who have a shared love for non-league football, and everyone who entered this competition truly embodies the spirit of the Isuzu Football Community.”
