Land of brave, home of the free, the USA has a wealth of host teams ready to provide a warm welcome and stiff opposition in every one of its 52 states... except maybe Alaska! Whether it’s the hustle and bustle of New York, the down home hospitality of Texas, or living the high life in Las Vegas, there are destinations to suit every group.
Sport is an important part of the culture in the US as anywhere in the world, it just so happens that the sports they take most seriously are, well, different. Ask the average American what they think about football and they’ll start talking about first downs, rushing yards and wide receivers. Soccer - as they call it - isn’t alone among global games that are viewed as little more than developing sports in the States. Cricket, rugby, hockey and netball are eclipsed in terms of popularity by baseball, basketball and ice hockey, with the stars in their respective games earning salaries that would make even a Manchester City player jealous.
Despite being put in the ‘developing’ bracket, many traditional European sports still enjoy strong regional and national followings due to the sheer size and diversity of the country. Soccer has a healthy playing base particularly in youth and women’s football. Rugby is now considered a nationwide sport with the standard increasing season after season, and amateur cricket leagues have grown thanks to the enthusiasm of the expatriate community. ‘Field’ hockey is also popular, especially in colleges and universities, whilst netball is expanding its base around the east coast.
