Testimonials

MasterClass

"MasterClass crams so much sporting & non-sporting experience into every day that there is no chance for any pupil to be bored. In a world of huge parental & pupil expectation that is an absolute godsend."

Kings School Winchester (Holland)

"Team work and great sportsmanship was certainly on every teams' minds."

Bromley High School (Holland)

"Another enjoyable hockey experience for both students and staff in Valkenburg. A great opportunity for your players to develop the skills and confidence in coaching sessions and to experience Dutch Club Hockey and hospitality."

Howell’s School (Holland)

"This is the second year we have travelled with MasterClass and would highly recommend them to you, particularly if you want a quality experience and problem free!"

Surbiton High (Holland)

"I would strongly recommend MasterClass Sports Tours to other schools in the UK. We have just returned from a fantastic netball trip to Valkenburg, Holland over October half term 2010. The 11 girls that I brought had the time of their lives and I know will remember it forever. Everything was perfect – pre-tour organisation, transport, hotel, netball coaching and tournament, excursions, disco. We will most definitely return again."

Alexandra High (Holland)

"The tour provided pupils with sun, sea and sport! Our girls enjoyed playing against other schools at netball in the tournament and also performing their dance routine at the disco. It was an excellent week with fun had by all."

Overton Grange School (Spain)

"The whole tour was outstanding from start to finish. The MasterClass staff did everything possible to support our tour from booking to returning to the UK. It gave our pupils a chance to feel like professional footballers for a week! Looking forward to booking our next trip very soon."

Woolmer Hill (Holland)

"The hotel was excellent and perfect for the trip that we were on. There was lots of space for the pupils to hang out and they really enjoyed it, food was outstanding and all the staff were very helpful and polite!"

Holmfirth High School (Spain)

"A fantastic week had by both staff and pupils – we are looking forward to next year already!"

Holmfirth High School (Spain)

"Pre-tour administration was excellent, I asked lots of questions of MasterClass and they were addressed very quickly and accurately. Their intentions were to help and ensure that the tour was a success."
