Things to do in Ipswich!!

We love our little Suffolk town (hopefully soon to be city!). The countryside around Ipswich is beautiful and there are lots of lovely places to explore.

Parks: Christchurch Park is close to Ipswich Sports Club and is a beautiful place to go for a walk and unwind.

Waterfront: You can wander down to the marina, there are plenty of restaurants here. 

Cinemas: We have two main cinemas- Empire and Cineworld.

Restaurants: There are a large array of different cuisines on offer, feel free to ask the tournament team for recommendations.

Fun activities: Jump In Adventure Park- a favourite with adventurous kids! Jimmys Farm & Suffolk Foodhall for a jumpy pillow and a scoop of local ice cream.

Please don’t hesitate to contact any of the volunteers and or tournament staff if you need anything at all.

Play well and have a great tournament.

Cheers Emily
