Cambridge United to be subject of documentary made by American production company for CBS Sports

Cambridge United have teamed up with an American production company to create a three-part documentary series set to air on CBS Sports at the start of the 2025/26 season.

The show will be made up of three half-hour episodes and gives the club a chance to tell its story first to audiences in the US and Canada. There’s also potential for more episodes later, plus rights sales worldwide.

The episodes will be part of CBS’s EFL coverage, which they hold broadcasting rights for in the USA through the end of the 2027/28 season. Matches are shown on Paramount+, CBS Sports Network, and CBS Sports Golazo Network.

Filming is planned to start near the end of this current season.

United’s CEO Alex Tunbridge said: “This is not the first opportunity of the kind we have been presented with, however, with the forthcoming rebrand and the recent changes to our football operations we believe now is the right time to share the Cambridge story overseas.

“We have a lot to be proud of as a club and as a city and we hope to use the CBS Sports platforms to educate and engage a new audience. CBS Sports have more than 50 million subscribers and we hope to be able to share a piece of Cambridge with as many of them as possible.

“Initially this will be a modest production in terms of scale and scope, although we hope to be able to continue filming and produce a further set of episodes which will tell the full story of the 2025/26 season, be this via CBS Sports or other worldwide platforms.”
