U18s' Swans Fixture Off - Ipswich Town News
Saturday’s U18s fixture against Swansea City has been postponed due to the Swans’ lack of player availability.
The game was set to be played at a neutral venue, the FA’s National Football Centre at St George’s Park.
It’s the second week running the U18s have been without a match with last weekend’s game at QPR having succumbed to a waterlogged pitch at the West Londoners’ Heston Sports Ground.
An U23s friendly with Brentford at Playford Road scheduled for yesterday was also called off on Tuesday afternoon due to concerns regarding the pitch because of the recent rain.
Town’s U18s, who are coached by Adem Atay and Jason Dozzell, remain top of Professional Development League Two South.
