Grassroots Festival schedule released
THE schedule for this year’s Suffolk FA Grassroots Festival has been released.
The festival is taking place on Saturday, May 10th and Sunday, May 11th at Eastward Ho! In Felixstowe for the second time after the success of last year’s event.
Suffolk FA Football Development Officer James Morley, who is organising the festival, said: “We are excited to announce the weekend schedule.
“We have taken into account Ipswich Town's home game, currently scheduled for 3pm on the Saturday, though this may change due to TV requirements.
