MATCH DETAILS CONFIRMED FOR NEWPORT EMIRATES FA CUP TIE

Cambridge United can confirm the Club will play Newport County at Rodney Parade in the Second Round of the Emirates FA Cup on Sunday 3rd December, kicking off at 2:00pm.

 AN v FAT Football is coming to Cambridge

MAN v FAT Football – an FA-endorsed 14 week football league exclusively for the 56% of UK men who are overweight or obese launches in Cambridge from 8th January 2018

The MAN v FAT Football scheme is for the very first time available in Cambridge. Local men who want to tackle their weight issues now have the chance to join this incredibly successful weight loss league. With 95% of players losing weight and some players losing up to 70lbs during the 14 week league, it’s no wonder that the Football Association have officially endorsed the leagues.

Set up by Andrew Shanahan who himself lost five stone and was fed-up with weight loss classes just for women, MAN v FAT combines football with easy to follow diet and lifestyle advice as well as 24/7 online and offline support. There’s the traditional weigh-ins before each game, but this is then followed-up by a 30 minute game of six-a-side football. Extra goal bonuses are awarded depending on the pounds lost by the players, so it becomes a real team effort.  Click here for more info  or /www.cuctrust.co.uk/health/man-v-fat-football/
