Cambridge Fans United have a history of supporting Youth Development at the CUFC, and following on from their sucessful sponsorship during 2010/11 CFU has once again become CRC’s home match day sponsor for the 2011/12 season.
In addition CFU are currently sponsoring two players this year who are starting out on their footballing careers at Cambridge United. In the past we have sponsored, amongst others, rising stars such as Darren Quinton and Michael Morrison.
This year we are sponsoring Rowan Cooper, and Kieran Westwood. We look forward to following their careers, and wish all three of them every success in the future.
CFU have a long standing commitment to backing Youth Development and helping with the development of young players at Cambridge United which even pre-dates Jez George's arrival at the club. We believe the Youth Development scheme represents the future for both sourcing first team players and providing long term financial benefits to Cambridge United. This beocomes even more important during current times when we see football as a whole facing uncertainty, increasing costs and financial loses.
In addition to the sponsorship we also finance and organise the New Year Raffle which has helped contribute several thousand pounds towards Youth Development during recent years.
We have also supported the Youth Scheme by helping to finance improvements and repairs at the houses where the players live.
