Italy

Recognised as the birthplace of western culture, Italy has a rich story to tell, one that is written into its ancient ruins and passionate culture. Home to many of the world’s most extraordinary artistic and architectural masterpieces, the iconic museums and landmarks that students will explore in Italy are the stuff of legends.  From quaint artistic villages to historically-important towns and cosmopolitan cities, there is something here for everyone. Come play soccer in Italy and you will instantly realise that Italian soccer can only be described as passionate and exciting!

Spain

Spain, a land of sunny beaches and ancient towns, has traditionally held a special attraction for sports clubs. In the cities, narrow and twisting old streets suddenly open out to views of daring modern architecture. The country is full of cultural experiences with superb old buildings, from Roman Aqueducts and Islamic palaces to Gothic cathedrals. Almost every second village has a medieval castle and the hospitable nature of the Spanish will ensure your team feel welcome!

The UK

England is the perfect destination for soccer teams of all levels, ages, and genders, offering plenty of playing, training, and cultural opportunities. Manchester and London are both a good base to explore all that England has to offer, as these two cities offer the best local teams for your games as well as great history to explore. From Manchester and London you can also explore Liverpool, Oxford, Bath, Newcastle, York, Blackpool and more. With so much to see and do in England, this is a country to visit repeatedly without doing the same things twice.
