Channel Islands

The Channel Islands offer a great option for school and sports groups, with excellent sporting facilities, local fixtures and plenty to do away from the pitch. Our strong local expertise means we can arrange everything from fixtures and facilities to activities and transport, creating a well-rounded tour without travelling far from the UK.

Off-pitch activites:  

Away from the sport, the Channel Islands offer plenty for groups to get involved in. The coastline provides a range of activities including paddleboarding, surfing, coasteering, kayaking, RIB voyages and fishing. Groups can also explore the islands’ unique history, including the extensive German Occupation and WW2 sites found across the islands.


Easy logistics and acommodation: 

With strong local expertise, we can help organise fixtures, accommodation, activities and transport to suit each group. Short flights, straightforward transfers and everything within a relatively small area make the Channel Islands an easy destination for sports tours.
