Welcome to Cambridge United, a professional football club currently playing in Sky Bet League One at The Cledara Abbey Stadium. We are far more than just a football club, though. We play a pivotal role in the lives of our fans and our community. We pride ourselves on our loyal fan base and the support of our sponsors. We are committed to delivering varied programmes within schools to positively impact the lives of children, teaching them more than just football. Our dedicated coaches will deliver food and nutrition education, as well as teaching themes such as self respect, respecting others and self esteem. We also provide valuable sporting opportunities to kids, teaching them the value of sport and health and well-being. We are committed to ensuring every child gets the opportunity to excel. From a commercial perspective there are fantastic advertising opportunities with the Club. Pitch-side and LED perimeter boards, match day programme and online advertising are available at competitive rates, with the option of tailored packages that deliver maximum impact. Major investment has recently been made to vastly improve our hospitality suites and stadium, which cater for a brilliant day out in The A2B Taxicabs Suite or our Layrd Design Lounge. Match and Ball sponsorship opportunities are available for companies to exhibit their brands and showcase their USPs - by "taking over a Match Day"​ a sponsor can create a bespoke experience for their guests.
