The agreement opens up a new range of tours for schools and clubs to experience in South Africa, allowing them to train with coaches at facilities used by the two-time World Cup champions, the Springboks.
Sports tours are now available offering schools and clubs the chance to travel to South Africa, one of the best school sports tour destinations available. In the wake of Rugby World Cup 2015, it is a great time to visit the Rainbow Nation to enjoy a high quality sport experience combined with excursions that will last in the memory for a lifetime, including excellent game drives.
A rugby tour to South Africa with inspiresport will not only include professional coaching at high quality training venues, but also a chance for players and staff to interact with either a past or present Springbok player.South Africa Rugby Travel is the exclusive partner of the South African Rugby Union appointed to manage the South African supporters travel. As with all inspiresport tours, participants will be provided with tour kit supplied by Under Armour.
Bryan Coetzee, Director of Sports Travel, believes the agreement was a natural choice, “As the market leader in development tours, they have a wide range of customers who want to not only train with the best but also get under the skin of a sporting destination. We look forward to welcoming their customers to South Africa.”
This new deal follows an ongoing international expansion plan whereby inspiresport tours are now on sale in the Middle East, China and the USA. Steve Butchart, CEO of inspiresport comments, “South Africa has always been a destination that inspires many so it is a perfect fit for our expanding portfolio. The Rugby World Cup has given a new generation of children first hand exposure to the thrills and spills rugby can offer we hope to maximise this new level of interest.”
