New England

This is a lovely region, where you can combine the sights and sounds of Boston with the beaches along the New Hampshire coast. Boston is a friendly city with tree lined avenues and a European heritage. From here the Revolution took shape and you can follow the ‘Freedom Trail’ through the city and see Quincy Market, the ‘Cheers bar’ and Harvard University. Head north out of the city and you’ll recognise British place names such as Manchester, Portsmouth and Dover with friendly folk who love to entertain.

Accommodation

Most groups will enjoy a combination of ‘homestays’ with host team families and motel accommodations during the tour. There’ll usually be a barbecue after your matches and normally a variety of restaurants to choose from at good value for money.

Features

Wonderful leisure attractions and great hospitality
Choose from self-drive to make your own way through the region (by self-drive minibus) or have the services of a private coach (for transfers).
There are swimming pools, theme parks, beaches and barbecues for your leisure.

Sports

Football
Soccer is huge at grass roots level in the States, and the American teams just love the British game. There are so many British and European coaches working in the USA these days at schools and clubs, that you’ll get a real ‘home from home’ welcome when you play your games.

Hockey
There are pockets of competitive field hockey in the USA, especially in the New England region. The American pre-season starts mid August, so Summer tours are perfect preparation.

Others
Ice hockey and baseball are both popular here. So even if you don’t intend to compete with the locals, catching a top game will certainly be a thrill.

Other Information

Excursion Possibilities
Boston is packed with interest and culture. Quincy Market is great for your shopping; while the JFK museum and aquarium are both worth a visit.

Outside the city there are theme parks and water parks, beaches and shopping malls.
