Despite the result, there was so much for Cambridge to be proud of in the women's @VarsityMatches. A very young and 'green' team dug deep especially defensively to give a strong Oxford side a good test.

It is always great to 'dust off' the notepad to attend the @VarsityMatches - it is hard to beat being at and reporting on live sport.

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

There was a compelling and thrilling win for Cambridge in the men's @VarsityMatches, with it all coming together in the end. It makes it three wins in a row, and they have shown so many different traits in each victory.

Good to see Keely Hodgkinson win #SPOTY but a shame that Alex Yee did not feature in the top 3. It felt he was sold a bit short by #BBCSport as they did not mention that he went on to also be crowned world triathlon champion.

It was brilliant to go to @cambridgecityfc's opening of their new stadium today, having written so much about it in my past life. It was great to see so many familiar faces who have worked tirelessly for the club in their 'nomadic' years. What a place they can now call home.

If you are enjoying the @Paralympics opening ceremony you will LOVE the AMAZING @netflix doc RISING PHOENIX which charts the history of the games.

It's one of the best films I've worked on and it's never been seen by enough people..

That #OlympicGames 100m was unbelievable & @LylesNoah is something else. #Paris2024

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

What an incredible display by @FaulknerKristen to win the women's road race #Paris2024

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

Leon Marchand was amazing, as was was the crowd's reaction during the breastroke leg #Paris2024

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

Great to see former @CambridgeNomads player @garethfurlong get two goals in a flying start for @GBHockey at #PARIS2024, with ex-@cchcuk James Albery also featuring.

Emilia Bushrod is not just the skipper of @CURUFC for today's @VarsityMatches, the work in the role for the Old Girls means that she really is the cap-tain fantastic. https://t.co/fsQgnwstYo

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

And the @CURUFC sisters' act will continue at the @VarsityMatches, with the baton being carried this year at @Saracens by the O'Keeffes. https://t.co/WyoIUJ8bl5

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

The story of Makoto Tosa, who will be appearing for @CURUFC in the @VarsityMatches at @Saracens today, is a remarkable one. https://t.co/WyoIUJ8bl5

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

What an amazing story for #CoteDIvoire to win the #AFCONFinal

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

It was good to get down to @CURUFC for the win over @RAFRugbyUnion last night. A good performance in the build-up to the @VarsityMatches

What started with Dallas and Knibbs goals to beat Colchester late on, Mark's time in charge of #CamUTD will - once the dust has settled - never be forgotten for all its highs & surely be remembered as one of the best.

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

It's sad to see that Mark Bonner's time as manager of @CambridgeUtdFC has come to an end today.
Promotion, great escapes, a famous FA Cup win, it has been a stand-out spell in the club's history.
Yet, one of the most important things that Mark did at #CUFC rarely gets mentioned.

[Mark Taylor @MarkT06]

His work with the #CamUTD academy during the Conference days, and then preparing the EPPP to reach Category 3 status on the return to the Football League should never be overlooked.
It may not be bright and shiny, but it was fundamental.
