Directions:
Follow A1214 ring road round the north of Ipswich (from junction A12/A14, following signs for Woodbridge & Gt Yarmouth) until you reach the “Heath Road” roundabout (just beyond a Shell Garage on the left). Alternatively, if travelling from the north on the A14, take the 'Ipswich West & North' exit off the A14 - which is the old Norwich Road, and follow towards the Ipswich town centre until you intersect with the A1214 ring road, where you turn left and find the above-mentioned Shell garage after crossing an intervening set of traffic lights and 4 roundabouts.

For both the above approaches, generally, follow directions for the Ipswich 'A & E' Hospital, which is in Heath Road. At the Heath Road roundabout, turn right and proceed past the front of the hospital to the next roundabout. Turn right into Foxhall Road. The entrance to the ground is about 400 yards from the roundabout (almost opposite Chilton Road), just past the St Elizabeth Hospice which is fronted by a row of turquoise railings.

(Note - Copleston Centre are discouraging access to the School and pitch from the Britannia Road/Copleston Road side of the school, because of traffic congestion (Please use the main sports access entrance off Foxhall Road, as described above).

Approximate distance/driving time from A12 / A14 junction: 6 miles, 30 minutes.

Approximate distance/driving time back to Rushmere Sports Club (for hospitality): 1.5 miles, 5 minutes:
