Community Trust Running Half Term Soccer Schools - Ipswich Town News

The Ipswich Town Community Trust will be running their Soccer Schools once again during October half term Portman Road and Beccles Town.

The Soccer School programme is open to outfield players and goalkeepers whether playing for a club or school or completely new to football.

The days will consist of technical drills, match play and a tournament (numbers depending), under the eye of ITFC staff to aid the players development.

The aim of the programme at Ipswich Town is to play a key role in developing young players and to further identify talent who can progress into their Skill Centres, invitation only Elite Player Development Centre Programme and beyond!
