A charming country where a warm welcome from your hosts is guaranteed throughout your tour, Italy is famed for its tradition, culture and passion for sport where fixtures can be arranged against local clubs and district sides. As there is no school activity in Italy, games for junior/school sides usually take place in the evenings and weekends at all levels with clubs enthusiastic to welcome UK sides to improve their playing abilities. Whatever your discipline, be prepared for a feisty encounter with the hot-blooded Latinos followed by a celebratory social afterwards in their clubhouse.

Teamlink in the KNOW

• As eating out is traditionally a cheap affair when dining on pasta, we recommend booking on a bed and breakfast basis in most destinations to benefit from increased choice and value for money.
• Age groups follow the calendar year as opposed to the UK’s school year.  Please ensure you are aware of this factor when discussing matches and tournament entry with your Teamlink agent
