Eloise King, a 24-year-old midfielder for Norwich City Women, has a unique perspective as she prepares for the East Anglian Derby against Ipswich Town, the team she supported growing up. Born in Sudbury, Suffolk, King began her football journey with Ipswich Town, where she played nearly 100 matches before transferring to Norwich. As both teams aim for promotion—Norwich City for a play-off spot and Ipswich for automatic promotion—King finds herself torn between her childhood loyalties and her current commitment. King's parents, lifelong Ipswich fans, have adjusted to her new role, with her father, Chris, expressing pride in her achievements while still hoping for Ipswich's success. The family now shares a connection to Norwich, with her mother, Tracey, feeling welcomed by the club despite their Ipswich allegiance. As the derby approaches, the Kings anticipate a tightly contested match, with all predicting a 2-2 draw.
