Euro-Sportring UK and Ireland Reviews 

Always a great experience with Euro- Sportring. Well organised great communication and fantastic hosts.

We headed to the blackpool cup Easter 2026 . We had a fantastic trip from start to finish . The hotel Hampton by Hilton was very comfortable, with a great breakfast and close to venue. Its worth paying a bit more for a nice hotel . The tournament was run very well over both days and games were very well matched . The booking process was made so easy by Sandra for someone whos first time to book a trip like this away . We also had a bus with us from the start to finish organised by eurosporting and this made everything so convienent and easy .The kids made great memories .

Tournament was well ran from booking to the actual tournament . No issues. All games ran to time.
Going back in 2027 as the team had a great time

This is my 2nd trip with the guys, and another big success. They make planning simple and communication is excellent 👍 would defi use again

This is the second time we have used the company. This trip went perfectly. The bus company, the accomodation, the tournament was all spot on. Everyone on our trip had a great time. We will be booking again. Thank you

Travelled from Scotland to play in the Blackpool Cup during Easter. Everyone had a fantastic time! Great tournament, extremely well run and staff were brilliant.
Booking through Euro-Sportring was easier than I had expected and you can book travel and accommodation through them, this takes a lot of the stress away keeping everything in one place. Will definitely be looking to go again.

Thanks to Gavin and the team for a brilliant experience. All our parent is and kids had an amazing experience in Copa Jordi.

Football experience exceptional, accommodation could be better

Worst company ever!!!!

Arbitrage catastrophique, pas d’arbitrage assistant, le terrain vert est pourri , le synthétique est glissant

Arbitrage très nul et très mauvaise organisation.

As member of the board of CS Interstar, we know how difficult it is to organise international tournaments in the same week-end. For sure, each organiser has a list « points of improvements » for the next one. It could never be perfect.

In our point of view, our kids U-12 were happy back home and it shows us how good was their experience in Blackpool.

A specisl thanks to Gavin and non profit persons who make it possible

Feedback on the Blackpool Cup Experience – U12 Category

Unfortunately, I was quite disappointed with the Blackpool Cup, primarily due to the tournament format and the overall quality of the facilities:

Pitch Conditions: Most U12 games were played on uneven, hard fields located near the airport—far from proper football pitches. The lack of grass and bumpy surface was unexpected, especially for a tournament in the UK.

Limited Quality Pitches: Only one high-quality synthetic pitch was available, despite over 100 matches being scheduled per day across various age categories. Disappointingly, even semi-finals weren’t played on this better surface.

Lack of Basic Facilities: No changing rooms or shelters were available. Local teams brought their own tent structures, but for traveling teams, this was a major drawback, especially in poor weather.

Low Match Count & Competition Format:

Only 6 games maximum over two days, which felt limited.

Group stage levels were not competitive; interesting matches only began in the quarter-finals.

No matches to determine full final rankings, and not all teams attended the awards ceremony together.

Poor Atmosphere for Final Ceremonies: The prize-giving lacked energy, with minimal ambiance—just some generic music and a brief announcement over a microphone.

Recommendation:
If you're looking for a high-quality, truly international youth tournament experience, I would suggest exploring options in Germany, Spain, France, or Switzerland instead.

Ryan and Gavin made booking the whole experience extremely easy. They were on hand any time to answer queries quickly and efficiently. The tournament itself is very well run which I imagine is down to the hard work put in at planning stages. Would highly recommend Euro Sporting for any club wishing to take their team on a trip. Thanks for a great experience.

We went to Blackpool with our football team and parents May 3rd 2024, about 60 of us!!

Euro sporting helped us with what to expect, our transfers and much more!

The communication from these guys 🙌🏻
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☀️ Ryan and Gavin looked after us, I sent lots of questions, (different days for weeks on end in the run up to it) questions from the coaches and especially parents as it was our 1st ever trip away.

They answered every question, reassured us no question is a silly question, nothing was a hassle. The coach were there a little early to get us, very organsied, waiting till we had our breakfast and left when we were meant to. Drivers were great too. Lots of kids excited going to their matches, loving life!

Overall I would highly recommend this company for groups to enjoy a trip wherever it may be, and not have to worry about anything. Thanks so much euro sporting…. Especially Ryan and Gavin.
We had the best weeknd in Blackpool creating memories forever!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great football experience. The tournament is very well run in all aspects, football, logistics, on site facilities for food etc.

Great tournament catering for both boys and girls of all ages and levels.Perfect experience for our lads on their first tournament abroad.We had a few last minute additions and withdrawals from our group but Gavin and Ryan were only too happy to accommodate us.Would highly recommend this tournament for any teams travelling over from Ireland.

A fantastic run event, high standard of opposition, officials and facilities. Communication from the organisers was first class from start to finish and always on hand to answer any queries

We organised a trip to blackpool cup with Euro Sportring and it was an excellent weekend tournament and the build up was very smooth , we arranged airport pick up and shuttles to the site. Support was excellent and response quick to any queries.

Great experience- friendly and responsive engagement with Gavin and Ryan throughout. The tournament itself was great fun and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
