School Preseason Football Tour to Wales

Your school preseason football tour to Wales will allow your team to take advantage of the excellent facilities at the University of Swansea’s Sports Village. A combination of on-pitch training, and agility, strength and conditioning work will prepare your team for the challenges of the season ahead.

The facility’s location close to the beach means that you can include this in your training programme, with early morning, invigorating jogs to start the day. You can even use the sand to work on your agility!

As well as getting your team fit and ready to attack the start of the new season, this training camp experience will also help your team to bond. All on the lovely South Wales coast, at the same facility that’s previously been used by both Manchester United and Arsenal soccer schools.

University of Swansea Sports Village

A stunning sports campus set within the heart of Wales that was home to the World Cup winning All Blacks in 2015. Swansea University Sports Village is an enviable position right next to the beach meaning that summer preseason training camps have the opportunity to enjoy morning jogs along the coast, fun training sessions in the sea and the ability to work on agility and take down drills on the soft sand.

Supporting you every step of the way

Creating your perfect sports tour

Your quote will be put together by an experienced Tour Adviser who’ll be an expert in school sports tours and will know the destination really well too. They’ll work with you to create a tour to suit your group’s needs and meet your tour objectives.

Launching your tour to parents and students

The next step is to get your tour approved and then get students signed up to it. Our ‘Trip Launch Pack’ will help you with this step. Here you’ll find loads of resources (all free to download) designed to make your life easier at this crucial point in the planning process.

After you’ve booked

Once you’ve booked, your dedicated Itinerary Coordinator will start working on the finer details. They’ll make sure your itinerary makes the most of your time and they’ll take on most of the admin tasks for your tour (making the whole process a lot less stressful for you).

Support while you’re away

While you’re out on tour, we’ll be at the end of the phone 24 hours a day to provide support should you need it. We’ll also send you a final info pack before you go and you’ll be able to access all your tour documents via the free Vamoos app.

After your trip

When you return from your sports tour, we’ll ask you to complete a detailed feedback survey, which helps us continue to improve the service we offer. And we can start planning your next tour too, so you can give parents plenty of time to pay for it (and so it’s less stressful for you).
