How will you benefit?

We have an audience of over 25,000 across social media and spectators at matches as well as an extensive alumni database. Our 2025 Varsity Matches social media campaign reached over 1.1m impressions on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok with press coverage of the matches and the club in The Times. We have a strong network and supporter base in the local Cambridge business community.
Business to Business Exposure

Access to Talent: CURUFC Careers
Direct access to employment and internship offers to 140 CURUFC players on an annual basis.
Women’s Rugby
Over the last 10 years, women’s rugby at Cambridge has flourished, and we have seen participation more than double in this time. It remains one of the fastest growing sports in the world by participation and in the last few years we’ve had players go on to represent their country and top-tier professional clubs including Saracens and Harlequins.
International Tickets
We have an allocation of international tickets for matches in the Six Nations and Autumn Internationals.
About the Club
Founded in 1871, CURUFC is one of the best renowned amateur sporting clubs in the world. We have produced more than 320 men’s and women’s internationals and more British and Irish Lions than any other club. In recent years we have had ex-pro players such as James Horwill, Toby Flood, Flip van der Merwe, Ollie Phillips, Matt Symons and current Harlequins fly half, Jamie Benson all representing the men’s team. On the Women’s side, Scotland and Saracens star Coreen Grant played for CURUFC in 2019.
We currently have three Men’s and three Women’s teams. Both first teams will play their annual Varsity Match against Oxford University in the Lent term.
CURUFC is independently managed and therefore it actively seeks partnerships with corporate businesses to ensure the provision of rugby for all students.
