"THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME"

"Wow! What an amazing experience for the players and parents alike!! From the initial practices to the flight home, our girl's team bonded, learned to play together and became great friends. The time in-between was filled with professional trainings, team dinners and events, friendly games, tournament games and even a professional La Liga match. Barcelona will forever be a positive and long lasting adventure that I would recommend to anyone offered this opportunity." - Jill R.

"I know it was a lot of work so I wanted you to know that it was appreciated. Michael and I had a great time and made memories that we will share forever." - Al R. 

"The excitement for the trip to England had been building for weeks but nothing could have prepared us for the immersion into the world of football that awaited us. From the crisp Manchester weather on the day of arrival, watching a match between two rivals and feeling the intensity of competition to our final stop watching 2 Premier League squads battle on the pitch, my son and I were flooded with all things soccer. The trip went far beyond the tours of 9 different stadiums and the 4 live matches. It provided a behind the scenes look into what sacrifices must be made both by player to become a proper footballer and by club to compete and advance the success of your banner. Add to that education training by Blackburn Rovers and Bolton Wanderers staff and you have the complete experience which my son will reflect upon not only as a once in a lifetime voyage but also a philosophy he will apply to fuel his inner ambition to be the best footballer he can be. The Eastern staff have provided an immeasurable service with this well thought out and football filled trip which any true fan of the sport would truly find inspirational. Well done Eastern FC!"
