The Foundation was delighted to be joined by Town defender Conor Townsend at Needham Market FC for our Boys Advanced Training Centre session on Monday evening.

Conor, taking on his second appearance in the community since joining the Club in the Summer, watched on as the participants trained, before taking part in question and answer sessions with each group.

The participants asked questions around Conor’s career so far, his route into professional football including the benefit of loans at an early age, as well as his pre-match nutrition and routines.

The Advanced Training Centre is the top tier of the Foundation’s Boys Football Development Pathway, providing a route for talented footballers into the Club’s Academy. Our ATCs run across Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, with more information available by contacting Boys Football Development Manager Bradley Joy at bradley.joy@itfc.co.uk.
