The prestigious La Manga Club resort in south-east Spain has entered into a new and exclusive partnership with Sport Experiences, to provide school and club sports teams with a range of premium quality sports training camps in 2010 and 2011.

Sport Experiences is the specialist sports travel division of the UK's largest independently owned group tour operator, The Newmarket Group, and has more than 25 years of experience in organising and managing group travel arrangements.

Working in tandem with La Manga Club’s knowledgeable staff, Sport Experiences will ensure that visiting sports groups receive the very best travel and accommodation arrangements, as well as access to an exceptional range and standard of sporting facilities.

Located in a spectacular setting that enjoys a year-round Mediterranean climate, La Manga Club has hosted numerous leading sports teams and organisations. La Manga Club’s sports facilities are justifiably regarded as among the best in the world, using the most up-to-date pitch preparation techniques, automatic irrigation systems and dedicated maintenance programmes to guarantee good quality pitches.

There are eight international FIFA size grass football pitches, two of which can be converted into rugby pitches and there is a scrummaging area available with machines for junior and senior teams.

The sports pitches can also be prepared and used for lacrosse teams, and for cricket there are two ECB-approved Club Turf pitches and four full-length practice nets. A comprehensive range of Ram rugby and cricket training products are also available, as are world-class facilities for tennis and golf.

As part of the arrangement, all teams will also have complimentary access to the resort’s fully equipped gymnasium and indoor 25m swimming pool, and Sport Experiences is also able to fix friendly matches against local Spanish opposition for football, cricket and rugby.

Contact Toby Price at Sport Experiences on 020 8335 4949 or via team@sportexperiences.co.uk or visit www.sportexperiences.co.uk to discuss your tour plans and to receive a personalised quotation.

Sport Experiences are ABTA and ATOL bonded and have been awarded the LOtC Quality Badge.
