It starts on Tuesday night at home

After a battling goalless draw on Saturday at Redbridge, Wroxham now face 4 games in less than a week.

On Tuesday night, Heybridge Swifts are the visitors to Trafford Park. This is the fifth attempt to play this fixture, the previous attempts having fallen foul of weather that made the pitch unplayable. The visitors from Essex are currently in 6th place in the league and come into the game having defeated Grays Athletic at home on. Saturday.

On Thursday night , it is the rearranged Quarter Final of the Norfolk Senior Cup. The visitors are Downham Town of the Premier Division of the Thurlow Nunn League. The winner of this tie goes on to face Watton United in the semi- final. With the winner only one game away from a county cup final at Carrow Road, this is likely to be a closely contested game.

Easter Saturday the Yachtsmen are on the road to Ipswich Wanderers. Last August Wroxham defeated the Wanderers 4-0 at Trafford Park. Since then the Ipswich side have adjusted to life in the Isthmian League and on Saturday defeated Basildon United 2-1.

Finally Wroxham return to Trafford Park on Easter Monday for the derby game between Norfolk’s two teams in Isthmian League North. It’s the battle of the River Bure as Wroxham play Gorleston. The two teams fought out a 1-1 draw on Boxing Day at Great Yarmouth.
With Gorleston in 11th place in the league and Wroxham in 12th, this should be a close encounter to keep an expected large bank holiday crowd entertained.

At all home games , the club house will be open with a range of Woodfordes beers and the Galley Grill will be serving hot & cold food.
