England, the birthplace of soccer, is also home to some of the most legendary soccer clubs, stadiums, and competitions in the world, including the FA Cup finals. Their national soccer team is the pride and joy (or in some cases, the bane) of the country. England is one of eight national teams to have won the FIFA World Cup, achieving this feat in 1966 when they hosted the finals. They also reached the semifinals of the UEFA European Championship in 1968 and 1996. The English Women’s National Team’s most recent success was an impressive 4th place finish at the 2019 Women’s World Cup. England is home to one of the world’s best professional soccer leagues, the English Premier League, which boasts some of the top teams and players globally. The proud soccer tradition of this country makes it a perfect destination for international soccer travel teams.

There is so much to do in England's capital city, London: Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, Piccadilly Circus, the London Eye, Madame Tussaud's, Tower Bridge, dozens of museums and art galleries, Trafalgar Square, Marble Arch, Hyde Park, Greenwich, the Underground, and the Tower of London. Additionally, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Fulham, and Arsenal, as well as the world-famous Wembley Stadium, are only a stone's throw away. Teams traveling internationally have the opportunity to visit the stadiums, and see a match at one of these world-famous clubs as well as Wembley Stadium while in London.
Historic Chester, dating back more than 2000 years to Roman times, is an excellent choice as a base for exploring Northwest England and North Wales. En route to Chester, stop at world-famous Old Trafford Stadium, home of Manchester United, one of the world's most famous soccer clubs. Enjoy the museum and stadium tour, followed by a visit to the United megastore; then dine in the Red Café. Liverpool is an easy 30-minute ride from your Chester accommodation. Liverpool isn't that far away, and an excursion there includes memorable visits to Anfield, home of Liverpool F.C., and The Cavern, birthplace of the Beatles and the start of their Magical Mystery Tour.

England is justifiably world-famous for its majestic buildings, invention of soccer, and history dating back thousands of years. Throughout its long history, it's been a green and pleasant land, a sceptered isle, and a nation of shopkeepers. It's stood as a beacon of democracy and a bastion of ideological freedom, as well as a crucible of empire and cradle of class oppression. Magna Carta, the King James Bible, and the welfare state were all dreamt up here, but then again so were beer bellies, Bovril, and Mr. Bean. It's a nation of tea-tippling eccentrics and train spotters, of dog lovers and soccer fanatics, of punk rockers, gardeners, gnome collectors, celebrity "wannabees", superstar chefs, freewheeling city traders, pigeon-fanciers, cricket bores, and part-time Morris Dancers. To many, it's the most eccentric, extraordinary and downright incomprehensible place on earth. Welcome to England!
