Hello, my name is Marvin and I am a moose. Everyone at Cambridge United calls me Marvin the Moose. I am the club mascot. I wear a big Cambridge United shirt with my name on the back so you really can't miss me!
I love to see happy families and lots of smiles at the Abbey Stadium.
I have my own twitter page and you can follow me by clicking here twitter.com/MarvinMooseCUFC.
You can also find news about me in Marvin's Message in the programme. (You can buy these from sellers all around the ground)
On match days you can see me all over the place - Why not come and say hello and take a photograph with me? I love having my picture taken and you could send it to me to share on twitter.com/MarvinMooseCUFC
I have asked one of my helpers to put together some information for you. I hope it helps with your match day planning. The best areas for families to watch the match are in the Main Stand, Blocks A and G. These are at the front of the stand so you will have a good view of all the action. Take your pen and autograph book as you will see the players up close.
If you're a first time visitor to a game and would like to have a tour of the area before the match, please use the form below to arrange it with one of my helpers. There are toilets at each end of the Main Stand and also near the Dublin Suite, with an accessible toilet (plus baby changing facilities) under the Main Stand opposite the Premier Suite. There are signs and maps to show you the way and you can always ask one of our stewards in the orange jackets or our match day helpers. If you're one of my friends who come in a pushchair, there's a small pushchair park where it can be kept during the match. Just ask the stewards. Food and drink You can buy food and drink near the Main Stand at the Paul Wanless kiosk and also at a kiosk just next to the Fans Zone. They both sell hot and cold drinks, burgers, pies, chips.
There's also the Fans Zone behind the Main Stand. You'll see a wooden fence with lots of picnic tables outside. It is an area where friends, families and supporters using the Main Stand can enjoy a drink or some food at the tables there. It is open before the match and then again at half time. Also in the Main Stand are the match day hospitality suites but you'd need to book these before the match. Click here for more details. On non-match days and during holidays, Cambridge United hold football courses.
If you would like to find out when and where they are taking place click here I'm looking forward to seeing you soon at the Abbey! Come on you U's!
Never been to a match before?
