Morning: after meeting your tour manager at London Heathrow or one of the other London airports, the group will travel by private coach to Epsom College. On arrival you will check in to the boarding accommodation on campus, settle into your rooms and have some time to freshen up after the journey.
Afternoon: the group will have a short orientation walk around the Epsom College grounds to get familiar with the pitches, dining hall and common areas. A first training session under the lead of your own coaches is then scheduled on the Epsom College hockey pitches. The focus is on getting the players moving again after travel, feeling the English water based turf and sharpening basic skills in preparation for the upcoming clinic and matches.
Evening: after dinner in the college dining hall there is time for a relaxed team meeting in one of the common rooms to outline the goals for the tour and discuss the programme for the coming days.
Morning: after breakfast, the group will enjoy a guided sightseeing tour of London by coach and on foot. You will see many of the city’s famous landmarks such as Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, Westminster Abbey and Trafalgar Square, while hearing stories about London’s history and modern life in the city.
Afternoon: there is free time in a central area such as Covent Garden or along the South Bank of the Thames. Players and staff can explore the streets, enjoy some shopping, visit one of the smaller museums or simply relax at a café and soak up the London atmosphere.
Evening: in the evening the team will travel to a local London hockey club to play the first friendly match of the tour. This fixture is a great opportunity to experience English club hockey, test combinations on the pitch and enjoy a cultural exchange with the host team after the game.
Morning: a highlight of the tour is a professional clinic delivered by an English elite level or high performance youth coach at a London hockey club. The session focuses on technical improvement, tactical understanding and high intensity, game related drills. Themes can include build up from the back, pressing structures, circle entries and finishing, giving players the chance to train at a very good level in an authentic English club environment.
Afternoon: after lunch the group continues exploring London. Depending on interest, options include a visit to a major attraction such as the Tower of London or a relaxing boat trip on the River Thames to see the city skyline from the water. There is time for photos and to enjoy the unique mix of history and modern architecture that characterises London.
Evening: in the evening the team will travel to another London hockey club for the second friendly match of the tour. Playing a different opponent gives the team the chance to adapt to a new style of play, apply lessons from the clinic and further develop individual and team performance. A short social moment with the hosts after the game underlines the international and cultural aspect of the trip before returning to the hotel.

“The Holland Indoor Tour was an incredible experience for our children to play some top Dutch teams. Holland Elite facilitated the overall experience with fantastic expertise, providing exactly the hockey we asked for and providing so much personal care that meant we could totally focus on the hockey. We couldn’t recommend their overall approach anymore- they combine professionalism and personal care with a deep understanding of how to expertly facilitate a performance sport tour. “
