Challenge your athletes through custom-built international sports programs that combine high-level competition, training and cultural immersion, designed around your team’s sporting and developmental goals.
Develop Your Team Through International Sports Tours
More than a trip abroad, a different way to play
International competition puts athletes in situations they simply can't replicate at home. New opponents, coaching styles, environments and cultures and the excitement of representing your team abroad challenge players to adapt, communicate and perform differently.
We create international sports tours that help U.S. college teams grow and develop on and off the field while giving players an experience they’ll remember long after they’ve gone home.
Every Off the Groove program is designed to help teams:
Compete against international opposition
Experience different coaching and playing philosophies
Build stronger relationships on and off the field
Develop adaptability, confidence and independence
Experience another culture through sport

Sport Is Only Part of the Experience
Traveling abroad with your team means experiencing your sport in a completely new way, but some of the moments athletes remember most happen away from the field.
Discover a new city. Try the food. Experience another culture. Enjoy top-level sport. Spend time with teammates away from the routines of training, competition and college life.
It's a chance to compete, explore and experience another part of the world together.
Why teams choose Off the Groove
We don't build sports tours from a brochure.
Based in Europe, with first-hand knowledge of the destinations where our teams travel, we create each program around what coaches and athletes want to achieve.
From the level of competition and training facilities to accommodation, cultural experiences and logistics, every element is selected to fit your team and your goals.
This means the trip doesn't just work on paper. It creates a rewarding experience for athletes, coaches and the team as a whole, delivering where it matters, on and off the field.

The right destination for your team's goals
Spain, Portugal, Morocco, France and beyond.

We help you choose a destination not simply because it's somewhere exciting to visit, but because it offers the right combination of competition, development, culture and experience for your team.
