Roger 'El Capitan'
Strategy
Our team captain! Keeps the ball rolling – oversees all aspects of our primary daily business functions and responsibilities. Everything from customer sales to event management, client relations, planning, coordination – you name it!
Sports
Too many to count! We’re talking squash and swimming, fencing and football, cycling and cricket, rowing, running, rugby, kayaking, table-tennis, badminton, padel, golf – the list goes on!
“What excites me most about Sports Tours is the opportunity to bring people from all backgrounds together, giving them the chance to experience diverse cultures, develop new skills, and form lasting memories through their passion for sports. I genuinely believe sports can bring people closer and help foster friendships that extend beyond the game itself.”
Roger 'El Capitan'

Tom
Strategy
Tom runs the show when it comes to our home turf tournaments. He works closely with a range of suppliers and stakeholders to create and organise our unforgettable UK events – and they get bigger and better every year! Tournament venues, accommodations, governing bodies of each sport, tournament schedules, celebrity guests – talk to Tom!
Sports
Tom has played, refereed and coached football – he’s covered all angles! In his spare time, he (sort of!) enjoys going to Old Trafford to watch Man United.
“Having toured with Sports Tours back ‘in the day’ when I was playing grassroots football, I know firsthand how special these tours are and the lasting memories they create! I love being onsite at the event and putting faces to names! Delivering a successful event after 12 months of planning! These tours bring people together through a shared love of their sport – seeing the smile of everyone’s faces as the team celebrate being on tour after a long season.”
Tom

Alex
Strategy
As the Events Manager, Alex thrives on the dynamic nature of organising and managing high quality sports tours. What excites him most about his role is the chance to bring players, fans, and families together through unforgettable sporting experiences! Whether it’s organising the playing schedule, meeting with venues, or ensuring smooth events, Alex always takes pride in making each event seamless, engaging, and memorable for the whole family.
Sports
Alex has had a lifelong passion for sports, with a diverse background that spans football, skiing, badminton, golf and more! Since he was young, Alex has been actively involved in football and competed at a good level until his late teens. He’s now traded football for golf as his favourite sport, and he’s currently in the middle of lowering his handicap and pushing himself to improve further!
“The most rewarding part of my role is seeing the satisfaction on guests’ faces when everything falls into place, knowing that you’ve played a part in creating lasting memories and successful events. With a passion for sports I’m dedicated to delivering high quality service and ensuring every tour is an experience to remember!”
Alex

Stacey 'Brace'
Strategy
Stacey ensures all event details and team arrangements are fine-tuned. After sales, she becomes the main point of contact. Her role involves a lot of relationship building with clients, answering any questions, queries, concerns and strategically sorting anything teams may need or wish to change in the lead up to a cracking event.
Sports
Stacey has played football since she was little and used to be a season ticket holder for Derby! She cheers on her little girl from the sidelines on Saturdays and has Sundays to take to the field herself. She currently plays in the East Midlands Regional League but is ‘’resting’ from a broken ankle! To quote Stacey – ‘Some say retirement is close, but you are as old as you feel!’
“I am beyond passionate about the events we run. When I was younger, there wasn’t much out there in terms of tournament opportunities, so to be part of a company who offer such variety is incredible! The children/adults come to play sport and win (of course), but the off the pitch moments are just as important! The bonding, making new friends and really coming together is lovely to see and experience first-hand.”
Stacey 'Brace'

Matt
Strategy
Matt’s primary role is to assist with the operational side of things. He’ll get teams geared up for their incredible experience – transportation, accommodation, tournament logistics, expert tour coordination, everything you need to focus solely on the games and good times. Think databases, strategy, a total balancing act – his role is extremely varied and that’s what keeps things interesting!
Sports
For Matt, the magic of sport is seeing everyone shine. Helping create experiences where teams push their limits, celebrate every win – big or small, and build lasting friendships is what Matt is all about. Being part of those moments and supporting their growth is what makes his work so rewarding.
“The sportsmanship, the rivalries, the game-changing moments that push players out of their comfort zone – to facilitate this is very rewarding, plus it’s really growing my love for sport!”
Matt

Elle
Strategy
Elle works closely with the clubs to help manage their bookings – she’s that important point of contact for any questions and logistics leading up to an event. No day is the same! Elle is a people person, and really enjoys speaking to different party leaders and walking them through the exciting process of booking a tournament outside the familiar realms of local leagues.
Sports
Elle was raised in a loyal Derby County family. Her dad, who she really looks up to, was a Scout and coach mentor for Derbyshire FA throughout her childhood. And her partner is now a volunteer Manager for her stepsons U7’s team. Football has always played a big role in her life – she loves a home game at Pride Park, it reminds her of her childhood cheering on the rams!
“I have a long background in events and have always found something magical about sport events in particular – there’s a huge sense of belonging and togetherness. I’m really looking forward to getting involved with event season this year!”
Elle

Joe
Strategy
When you reach out with an enquiry, Joe will dive into understanding your touring needs and aspirations, ensuring every detail is just right. He’ll provide you with all the information and guidance you need to select a tournament that suits your team’s style.
Sports
Joe will throw himself into pretty much any sport – anything that fuels his competitive fire! He plays rugby league in the Midlands Premier League, regularly plays football and padel (with mixed results!), and enjoys going to the gym (yea… same).
“I’m a strong believer that our tours are so special because they offer players the chance to form connections both on AND off the pitch. It’s all those little moments in between. I always look forward to meeting all the teams during event season – it’s so nice to put names to faces!”
Joe

Harry
Strategy
Harry’s role revolves around kickstarting the booking process. When you reach out with an enquiry, he’ll work with you to find the perfect tournament and ensure all details match the personality and preferences of your team.
Sports
Harry’s sports background is endless, with his interests being cricket, hockey, golf, and (last but not least!) rugby! With rugby, he’s grown up with the sport since he was just 5 years old, and he still plays today – he also represented Leicester Tigers at Academy level.
“I really enjoy event season! Seeing all the players, parents and teams come together – the hard work really pays off when you see the smiles on their faces! As a team, we’re like a close-knit family – they’re not too bad!”
Harry
A weekend of fun, partying, team bonding….oh, a side of rugby!

What a fabulous weekend bringing clubs and families together making lifelong memories.

We thought the whole tournament was amazing, great pitches, great facilities and great up-to-date communications. A very well-organised tournament which all family members enjoyed.

We found the whole end to end process via Sports Tours seamless. Nice and easy team registration process (no unnecessary paperwork), decent pitches and referees were great too. Would 100% recommend Sports Tours – in fact we are already looking at options for next year. Five stars.

Fantastic service from the start of the booking process. All questions answered in a timely manner. Constantly updated on the run up to the tour. All information provided was very detailed. The tournament itself was amazing! Having been our first full weekend tournament, we were unsure what to expect, but the attention to detail was excellent.

From start to finish, the team at Sports Tours were an absolute dream to work with. Everything was seamless, nothing was too much trouble, no question was stupid (and we had a lot of those!!). The tournament itself was very well run, and the atmosphere was amazing. Our teams were living their best life that weekend.
