Why choose a MasterClass pro club tour?
On a pro club tour your players work with a club’s own coaching staff, at the facility their academy uses, following the methodology that produced the names on the shirts.
It changes how a squad sees itself, and it changes what they expect of themselves when they get home.
Well-matched fixtures, excursions, a destination worth exploring. The difference is who takes the session.
Every pro club tour includes:

What you get on a MasterClass football tour
Our MasterClass football tours include:
Not quite what you’re looking for?
Every MasterClass tour is built around football, but they work in different ways. Here is what else we offer.
Football Tours
Pick a destination, and we build the tour around it.
Your squad plays well-matched fixtures against local opposition, trains with qualified local coaches and spends real time in the place you have travelled to.
Football Tournaments
A guaranteed run of competitive matches against international opposition, with qualified officials, pool stages and a finals day.
Because the dates, the itinerary and the price are all set, it is the simplest tour to budget for and the easiest to get signed off.
Multi-Sport Events
A festival of sport on fixed dates, where several sports compete side by side.
Coaching early in the week, a tournament day against other UK schools and excursions that make the trip.
More than just football
Training in an elite environment does something a normal session cannot. Players see the standards a professional club works to, the detail in the coaching and the facilities behind it, and they measure themselves against that.
Combined with travelling as a squad and experiencing a new culture, it builds confidence, resilience and ambition that lasts well beyond the tour.

Football tour FAQs
Do we need travel insurance?
Yes. We provide travel insurance in partnership with Endsleigh Insurance which offers a policy specifically designed for your tour itinerary.
When will I receive my tour’s fixture list?
We aim to confirm all fixtures 4 weeks prior to travel. However, this is dependent on the destination. Fixtures may only be finalised closer to departure as we rely on the goodwill of teachers and coaches around the world.
How do you aim to get the right standard of fixtures?
Upon booking, we will send a group information form which will ask for further information regarding your fixture requirements, including team strengths. We will also arrange a virtual meeting or phone call to discuss your teams in more detail.
Can you help me organise a parents’ evening?
Yes, this is something we can help with. We can help put together a presentation and attend the parents’ evening virtually to provide support and answer any questions. Please speak to our team.
