Want to Play at Portman Road? - Ipswich Town News

Town are looking for squads of 10 for their Soccer Sixes tournament which will be played on the main pitch at Portman Road on Friday 25th May. The all-day competition will see six-a-side teams battling through group stages and then knock-out rounds in order to become the Soccer Sixes champions of 2012.

At least five of the 10-man squads should be over 30 years of age with the other five over 18. Entry costs £500 plus VAT per team, which works out as £50 plus VAT per player (apply by team not as an individual).

For more information or to apply, visit the club site here, call the sales team on 01473 400594 or email them at sales@itfc.co.uk.

Back in 2005 Town staged the John Wark Cup, a six-a-side tournament where the R&D Construction team walked away with the trophy.

TWTD is considering entering a team or teams if there is sufficient interest from site visitors. If you fancy it, drop player-manager-chairman Phil a line here.
