A partnership with the Street Soccer Foundation has seen the launch of a new travel-exclusive football tournament.
 
The Travel United Cup, to be held on Friday 7 July 2023, will bring together 16 teams to compete at the iconic St George’s Park, the Football’s Association’s home at Burton-upon-Trent and the training ground for the England team.
 
Participants, which will include a TTG team, will experience playing on the David Beckham Pitch and explore the Club England Pavilion, usually closed to the public. Alongside the tournament itself, attendees will be invited to take part in a skills zone to practise penalties and learn new tricks. 
 
The tournament is the brainchild of Andy Mabbutt, who said: “I got involved in the Street Soccer Foundation over a year ago and it has absolutely blown me away how much of a positive game changing impact the foundation makes upon many young people’s lives.

"To do this in partnership with another wonderful, amazing charity, Just A Drop, whom I have had the privilege and pleasure in supporting on many occasions, is a hugely rewarding combination. 

 
Fiona Jeffery, Just a Drop founder, added: “The travel industry has a reputation of competing to be the very best. This is a chance to compete for and take home a different accolade – an industry cup that proves once and for all which travel company is the best… at football. All whilst transforming lives both in the UK and across the world.”
 
Games will be five-a-side, with teams of seven to 10. Entry is £2,000 per team, with all money going to the two charities. There are also several sponsorship opportunities available from £1,000 to £6,000.
