Suffolk FA Girls’ & Women’s Football Development Officer Paige Shorten said: “It was great to host the last FA Girls’ Regional ACC Festival of 2016-17 season.

“We had brilliant weather for the Festival which helped the positive and professional environment set from the start. We were able to host U10, U12, U14, U16 and U18 age groups and hope all of the girls had the best football experience on the day.

“Thank you to all of the parents, players, coaches and spectators that travelled to Haverhill to support our Festival.

I would like to thank the staff at The New Croft for their tremendous efforts and superb facilities; the officials on the day were great and definitely created a positive learning environment for all players in the matches.

“Suffolk FA wish all of the players the best of luck in the future and look forward to seeing you all in 2017-18 season!”
