Non-PSV Union F.C players are welcome to join the tour of predominantly PSV Union FC players. During previous U.K tours, each team was comprised of players from up to 5 different teams. Most went with a friend and some parents accompanied the tour party.

Each team will play approximately 4 games and receive world class coaching instruction with Australian Professional coaches as well as our club coaches while we explore the East Coast of Australiaby private 54-seater bus and plane. We will take 2 teams of 18 players. With 2 coaches and 1 manager per team, this leaves only 12 seats available for parents to accompany the team on the bus ride. If we have more parents/families interested we can hire more mini-buses/cars or simply rendezvous at destinations. The objective is to maximize the experience for all. We are hoping for as much parent participation as possible.

We welcome 6 parents for each team to travel with the group who wish to act as chaperones. If you have an interest in being one of thee parent chaperones, please contact us immediately. Email Admin

Parents who wish to travel independently are encouraged to do so and join the tour at their own leisure on their own itinerary and join us when possible. Players will share rooms and be chaperoned by volunteer parents and team managers.
