Accommodation

All teams are accommodated at the All Star Sports Resort, with the chance to enjoy all the Disney Theme Parks when not spending time on the pitch. Teams only have 1 match per day to ensure they make the most of the theme parks and other local attractions during their once in a lifetime football tour to Florida. Staying at the All Star Sports Resort entitles your football team to ‘Magical Hours’ within the theme parks which only applies to guests staying at the Resort and grants exclusive access to a variety of theme parks outside of their normal opening times (usually 2 hours before or 2 hours after standard park opening times). Think of the fun your team will have with the whole theme park to yourself!
