Sport Challenge Series in Torrevieja
26th -30th October 2025
This Sport Challenge Series event is a netball festival that's fun, inclusive and will leave your netballers inspired.
It takes place in Torrevieja, on Spain’s spectacular Costa Blanca. As well as incredible beaches, amazing food and everything else you’d expect from one of Spain’s top resorts, Torrevieja is home to a fantastic sporting complex, with world-class facilities.
Your training sessions will be led by Vicki Wilson, one of the best shooters the game has ever seen and a staple of the Australian national side for 15 years. She’s also coached the Fijian national team. She’ll inspire your netballers (and there’s also a ‘coach the coaches’ opportunity for you to take advantage of her expertise).
The tournament takes place on 26th – 30th October 2025 and you can even bring your rugby and football teams along to make this a multisport experience. So, shall we start planning?

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).
