New home kit on show for the first time

Town kicked off pre-season with victory at Felixstowe & Walton United this afternoon. 

More than 2,000 fans packed into the AGL Arena, many wearing the Club's new kits, revealed this morning, as the first-team wore the home shirts for the first time. 
 
The Town players got vital minutes in their legs during the 60-minute match, during which manager Kieran McKenna fielded separate teams in each of the two halves. 

Freddie Ladapo netted a brace as Sone Aluko, Kyle Edwards, Kayden Jackson and Panutche Camara scored goals as Town ran out 6-0 winners before the sides contested a penalty shootout.
 
The game was played at the home ground of Ipswich Town Women, with a BBQ and Fanzone area in operation through the day as supporters and players mixed before and after the game. 

Town are in pre-season action again on Friday night, when they take on Maidenhead United at Needham Market’s Bloomfields ground. 

Town (first half): Walton, Donacien, Edmundson, Ball, Davis, Morsy, Humphreys, Harness, Aluko, Edwards, Ladapo.
 
Town (second half): Hladky, Clarke, Woolfenden, Baggott, Leigh, Evans, Luongo, Camara, Morgan (F Barbrook, 30), Chaplin, Jackson.
