Since 2006, the United Airlines New York City Half has been a source of inspiration for runners around the globe. On March 16, 2025, over 25,000 athletes will once again take to the streets for a 13.2-mile route that starts in Brooklyn and ends in Central Manhattan.

Ten of those athletes will not only challenge themselves physically and mentally, but they will also be raising vital funds towards the twinning partnership between Wrexham AFC and Kick4Life FC in Lesotho seeks to foster international cooperation and exchange between two community-focused football clubs in Europe and Africa.

Wrexham and Kick4Life aim to work together to strengthen their community impact, with coaching exchanges, jointly promoting women's football, and co-development and delivery of a new 'Football for Good' curriculum covering health, education, social inclusion and employability.

Over the next three years, the partnership will reach 3,000 vulnerable children and young people across both countries.
