Town have picked up the Football League’s Family Excellence award for the eighth successive season.

Instigated in 2007, he Football League’s Family Excellence award recognises clubs providing young fans and families with an outstanding experience as part of a scheme which won the Gold Award at the European Professional Football Leagues’ Best Practice Awards.

The Blues were amongst 42 clubs to achieve the award for 2015 with Doncaster, Huddersfield, the MK Dons, Shrewsbury and Tranmere also receiving it for the eighth time.

Football League chief executive, Shaun Harvey, said: “The Football League Family Excellence Award gives clubs a standard to aspire to when planning their efforts to attract more families and young fans to their matches.

“It is hugely encouraging to see so many clubs receiving the accolade, demonstrating The Football League’s ongoing commitment to securing the next generation of fans.”

jewellsjewells added 17:12 - May 11 Itfc should lower the cost of kids football kits just to get them wearing the colours. My boy is one of the few at his school with a Ipswich shirt . The other parents say they can pick up a Barcelona or Real Madrid for half the cost of itfc kit . Lower the cost and colour the playgrounds of Suffolk in blue and white.... Buh

ChestnutSe added 20:31 - May 11 If we get to the premier league it would be good to see the TV money help to subsidise things like kids kit. The costs for the clubs must be really low so plenty of scope to cut the clubs profit margins on kids kit to colour the county blue.
