Manchester United
vs
Wrexham AFC
We are honored to share that the Transplant Trekkers have been invited to unfurl the American flag before the sold-out match between Manchester United and Wrexham AFC on Tuesday, July 25 at 7:30pm. The event, held at Snapdragon Stadium, marks the first time these high-profile teams have played in San Diego.
Organ transplant is a cause close to the hearts of at least two men who were instrumental in bringing the game to San Diego: Manchester United legend Andy Cole, a kidney recipient, and Mark Neville, CEO of Sports San Diego, a kidney donor.
This is an unprecedented opportunity to get the word out about Transplant Trekkers and the importance of organ transplant. We hope you’ll root us on and help us put transplant on the map!
Thank you to every volunteer who signed up to help us unfurl the flag. We wish we could have an unlimited number of people on the field with us, but unfortunately at this time have reached capacity. We will be in touch with volunteers soon to provide more event details.
