CLUB TOUR TO CHELTENHAM SPAR
What a weekend to remember! If you were lucky enough to join our much-anticipated Club tour to the gorgeous Cheltenham Spa on 26th-27th April 2025, you know exactly what we’re talking about. It was all about good vibes, new friendships, and an absolutely epic time from start to finish.
Oh, and let’s not forget – we crushed it in both of our matches! Winning made the whole trip even more awesome and gave us plenty to celebrate.
But hey, it wasn’t just about what happened on the pitch. The real magic was back at the hotel in the evenings. Drinks were flowing, laughter was nonstop, and those laid-back gatherings turned into some of the best moments of the trip. By the end, we were more than just teammates – we were a family, and that made the whole experience next-level unforgettable.
