WELCOME Ipswich School would like to welcome you to the Ipswich 7s tournament for U14, U15 and U16 teams at Notcutts field, an event which brings schools from around the country here to enjoy playing Rugby 7s.

We are grateful to our tournament sponsors, Howden, for their generous support to make this event possible.
