## Key points

- 10% of shirt sale profits will go to the Music Venue Trust.
- Move highlights struggling finances of UK grassroots music venues.

## Summary

Cwmbran Celtic FC has launched new kits for the 2026/27 season featuring designs inspired by four independent bands: Super Furry Animals, Mogwai, Panic Shack and Loose Articles. Made by new kit supplier Tor Sports, the collaboration aims to support grassroots music venues, with 10 per cent of shirt sales going directly to the Music Venue Trust, whose research found over half of the UK's grassroots venues made no profit last year, operating on average margins of just 2.5 per cent.

Panic Shack and Super Furry Animals feature yellow and blue designs, while Mogwai and Loose Articles have green and white striped kits, with the men's first team already debuting one look in a 3-0 win over Cwmbran Town. The remaining proceeds will support the wider Cwmbran Celtic community, including its senior teams, veterans, walking football and junior sections. The partnership was brokered by joint commercial managers Matt Jarrett and Connor Cupples, who both have ties to the grassroots music scene, and features bands with local or personal connections to the club, including Mogwai's fondness for Glasgow Celtic and Loose Articles' drummer having a mother who lives in Cwmbran.
