Ainsley has been a key figure in the Trawlerboys team since joining the club and played his part in the club achieving conference football. However, due to the lengthy travelling that has been difficult to tie in with his job and family, Ainsley has requested a move away from the club.

As a club we tried to do as much as possible to aid the difficulties facing the player but in the end a move to Leiston was the best option for the player.

We are naturally disappointed to see Ainsley leave but would like to thank him for everything he's given to the club and we wish him all the best for the future.

Speaking about the departure, Lowestoft Town manager Ady Gallagher said "It's always disappointing to lose somebody of Jack's quality. Over a prolonged period we have tried everything to help Jack overcome the difficulties he has faced but unfortunately he has made it clear he is no longer able to commit to the club. Regrettably this is the best solution for all involved and I can only thank Jack for his wonderful service and wish him and his family all the best for the future".
