Investing in the future of the women’s game: Cambridge United to host Girls in Sports Night
June 30, 2026
Cambridge United is hosting a special Girls in Sports Night on Saturday, July 4 at Fountain Street Soccer Complex. A night about more than just the game of soccer, this event is an investment in the future of girls and women in sport. Join us to celebrate the growth of our female athletes, highlight our development pathways, and cheer our premier women’s team to victory!
Gates open at 7:00 p.m. with kickoff set for 8:00 p.m. as our OPL2 Women’s team takes on league-leaders Pickering FC. With crucial points up for grabs, our squad is looking to make a massive statement on home turf and continue to climb the table.
