Ipswich Reunion

Recommended Posts

Ipswich Witches fans will be interested to know that John Berry, in association with Backtrack, is to hold a reunion of former Foxhall favourites on Good Friday, March 25.

 

After Witches' home match against Arena Essex in the afternoon, JB and his old friends and colleagues are gathering at the nearby Kesgrave Community Centre for an evening of fun and pure nostalgia, including a fans' forum where you can fire questions at Berry and co.

 

Among the VIP guests who have already confirmed their attendance are:

Dave Gooderham

Jeremy Doncaster

John Louis

Kevin Jolly

Mike Lanham

Preben Eriksen

Ron Bagley

Ted Howgego

Tim Hunt

Tony Davey

Trevor Jones

Mick Hines

Andy Hines

Richard Knight

 

Others are expected to be there, including Michael Lee - yes, after all these years, JB has finally relented and called on a 'guest' . . . and from Witches' arch East Anglian rivals, too!

 

Tickets are priced just £10, which includes complimentary 32-page souvenir programme and light refreshments.

 

Doors open from 6pm but the main part of the evening commences at 7.30pm, and ends at 11pm.

 

Tickets are very limited, and are only available in advance of the event, so we urge you to book early to avoid disappointment.

 

You can order tickets (£10 per person) via the Backtrack office credit card hotline on:

01708 379 079. If you call outside normal office hours, just leave your name and number and we'll call you back as soon as possible.

 

Or send a cheque/postal order (payable to Backtrack) to:

Backtrack (Ipswich Reunion), Unit 4, Ashton Gate, Ashton Road, Harold Hill, Romford, Essex, RM3 8UF.

 

For those who live in or near Ipswich and would prefer to collect your tickets in person, they can also be bought in the town centre from:

Ipswich Tourist Centre, St Stephen's Church, St. Stephen's Lane, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP1 1DP.

 

If you enjoyed your speedway at Foxhall Heath during John Berry's 15 years there, between 1969 and 1985, then you won't want to miss this!
