We here are at the group travel scoop are struck with the fact that there is another area where it’s hard to find tips- sports team travel. Just not enough quality advice out there for planning successful sports team travel. We now take it upon ourselves to remedy that situation.
The challenge of getting a kid to throw, dribble, kick, bat, or tackle can be far less intimidating than getting the team there and back safely and within budget. But like anything in sports, the right game plan will see you through.
Tips for successful sports team travel:
- Book hotels with inside corridors and with adjacent rooms or at least rooms grouped close together. Find a place to stay with an inside pool with restricted access. Reducing the opportunity for trouble is the name of the game here.
- Pick a place to stay that offers free breakfast as part of your stay. Having breakfast included will save the hassle of arranging a morning restaurant run and save you money. Killing two birds with one stone. It's also a good idea to have a restaurant or two within walking distance.
- Get your hotel rooms now! The quicker you solidify group travel for your team the better. Four months out is not too soon to plan your team’s travel, in fact, it’s ideal. Many small towns where many tournaments or events are held have limited room availability. The only way to ensure the amount of rooms you want at a price you can afford is to book well in advance. You do not want to have to ride a bus 50 miles, from the next town over, because you waited too long to make your plans.
