Town Prizes in Ultimate Charity Auction - Ipswich Town News

The opportunity for one young Town fan to be a mascot at Portman Road and the chance for 10 supporters to enjoy an ultimate matchday experience are being offered in support of the Ultimate Charity Auction.

The ultimate mascot experience includes the chance to meet the first-team players in the dressing room, run out with the team before kick-off and then enjoy a kickabout on the Portman Road pitch (weather dependent).

The mascot will also be given memorabilia of the day - the Town against Swansea City match on Monday 22nd April - including a full 2018/19 replica home kit.

Also in this year’s Ultimate Charity Auction, which originated in Suffolk and runs until Thursday 11th April, the club have donated the chance to win an ultimate matchday experience for 10 guests to enjoy Robson Hospitality in the Sir Bobby Robson Suite.

The prize includes a behind-the-scenes tour of the stadium, a three-course meal, executive seating for the match and much more.

As with the mascot prize, the Robson Hospitality auction item is only available for the Swansea match on Monday 22nd April.

The Ultimate Charity Auction, which has raised more than £1 million since it was launched in 2012, has once again attracted glittering prizes from household names in sport, celebrity and lifestyle.

This year’s beneficiaries will be the League Managers Association’s charity, In The Game, and the GeeWizz charitable foundation headed by veteran fundraiser and auction founder Gina Long MBE.

You can view all the fantastic auction prizes here."
