Yes, you will need formal permission to tour abroad. Please check with your local FA or RFU for the latest guidelines on international travel and participation.
Age groups in Europe are generally based on calendar years (January 1 – December 31), while in the UK they’re based on school years (September 1 – August 31). This means your team might need to play in a higher age category (e.g., a UK U10 might play as a European U11). Many tournaments allow for up to 3 players born in the latter part of the year to compete in the lower category, but more than 3 players born after September may need to play in the higher age group. This is a common practice and won’t affect your team’s performance.
Absolutely! We offer a variety of excursions and activities, such as theme parks, water parks, stadium tours, and more. Speak with your Tour Consultant to explore options, and we can seamlessly add these to your itinerary for a hassle-free experience.

It was such a great weekend. Organised really well and the staff, especially Stacey from Sports Tours, were incredible. It’s not easy organising 2 football teams and Stacey was just incredibly helpful even with the ever-changing details within our group. A fantastic weekend had by all. Would definitely recommend!
