A total of nine teams took part in the competition, which was shelved last summer due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Ruth said: “It was great to see so many females playing in great spirits and in a nice, friendly environment.

“The standard was really high throughout the tournament which is great for female football in Suffolk and shows how well the female game is progressing in the county.

“Thanks to all the teams for taking part and also to the referees and, of course, Veo for sponsoring the Suffolk Sixes.

“It’s been really enjoyable and we look forward to running the tournament again in the future.”
