U18s Face Southwold in Annual Friendly

The Blues’ U18s will play Southwold Town in a friendly on Friday 22nd July (6.30pm). The match which is staged on the north Suffolk town’s Common has become an annual feature of pre-season.

Last season’s game ended in an 8-0 victory to the side now coached by Town legend Russell Osman.

The U18s also play away friendlies at Dereham Town on Saturday 16th July (KO 1pm) and at Walsham Le Willows on Saturday 30th July (KO 3pm), while the game against Whitton United on Saturday 6th August has switched to a 3pm kick-off.

Town's academy scholars were back at Playford Road for the start of pre-season training last week.

The first team's pre-season programme can be seen here.
