Ever Wanted to Grace the Portman Road Turf?
Ever Wanted to Grace the Portman Road Turf?
Friday, 4th May 2012 11:28

Town are still 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 — including two made up of TWTD users - 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.

I have to agree, the price is crazy!

I had 2 teams from my Sunday club ready and willing to play until we saw the price.

Good idea but like so much of what ITFC organise it hasn't been properly thought through. The very fact that they are still looking for teams weeks after announcing the event shows it is far too expensive.

Phil Can I play? You know you want to let me be on your team just so you don't keep tripping over grass everytime you're near me!!!!

I don't want your cheap (not so cheap even) offer of paying to play on the hollowed ground of the Portman Road turf, I still harbour grand dreams ,that have stuck with me throughout childhood and into my current age, of playing at Portman Road through my own toil, strife, effort, dedication, talent and hardwork...

... which materialises into me trying to kick a ball into a Boat shaped receptacle in order to win a cruise at half time.

My highlights of gracing the hallowed turf include running accross to the norwich supporters in the seconds that followed Rober Ullathorne's own goal whilst the match was waiting to resume along with many others!! And following the play off win v Bolton, I still have a bit of hallowed grass from that invasion framed in an ITFC silver photo frame I got for being GOH at the Crystal Palace match that year after winning an SGR FM competition lol
