Open Training Day Next Tuesday - Ipswich Town News

Town are holding their annual open training day at Portman Road on Tuesday 20th August. The Blues have held similar events for the past two years with nearly 3,000 people attending last summer.

For the first time this year supporters will be able to watch the annual photocall, which will be followed by a signing session, before the players train on the pitch in preparation for next Saturday’s home game against Leeds United.

There will also be other attractions on the Field Turf behind the East of England Co-op Stand including bouncy castles, inflatable assault courses, bungee runs and zorbing.

Gates open at 10am with the training session due to get underway at midday and the event ending at 2pm. Entry is free to all.
