History (from Wikipedia)

Ground[edit]

The club initially played at Young's Meadow, before relocating to Crowley Park.[1] In 1996 they moved to a new ground, buying the site after former player Arthur Rodwell died and left the club money, which was used together with a grant from the National Lottery.[1] The new ground was named Bloomfields after former player and clubman Derrick Bloomfield.[1]

A new record attendance of 750 was set for a 
Suffolk Premier Cup match against Ipswich Town reserves during the 2006–07 season. This was beaten when a crowd of 1,375 watched the FA Vase semi-final against Kirkham & Wesham in 2008. Another new record was set on 26 October 2013 when 1,748 saw the club play Cambridge United in an FA Cup fourth qualifying round game.[2]

In 2018 a 3G pitch with a 50-seat stand and new changing rooms were installed within the Bloomfields complex, which is used by the reserve team.
