Our Technical Program

Qualifications:
Training is performed by Dutch Development Trainers with the highest level coaching qualifications from a National Board that consistently produces World Champions.  Our partner for technical design and training is
FIH “Master Coach” a Grade 1 Developmental Coach (the only one in the World),  Thomas Tichelman, Dutch Men's National Team Coach and exclusive camp and clinic provider to the European Hockey Federation.

Ability:
Years of working with US players in our programs have allowed our Dutch coaches to completely understand our US player needs, strengths and weaknesses.  Giving them the ability to provide the absolute best training program available.

Focus:
All training has been designed specifically for the US player - Course curriculum is based on US playing standards and style. The program is dedicated to making them a better player - and it will.

Communication:
Every tactic is first demonstrated by coaches who know how to play the game at the highest levels, then the move is broken down for each individual body mechanic, and finally you will practice the technique under their direct coaching oversight with constant feedback.

Facilities:
All of our training and matches take place on Astroturf - water and/or sand base turf - allowing players to take maximum advantage of all stick handling drills, skills and techniques. A dramatic cut above US and even most European playing conditions.

Training Standards:
Simply unequalled - our Dutch coaches are well known for their preparedness - whether you are receiving a one day technical demonstration or attending a four day camp - the attention to details and the systematic program design will give all players, at all levels, the tools to take their game to the next level. Trainers are extremely serious about their coaching performance and achieving their camp goals. Our Dutch coach to player ratio is a minimum 1 coach for 5 players.

Technical Program:
Sport EuroTour's technical program is designed and implemented by the exclusive camp and clinic provider to the European Hockey Federation and Dutch U21 National team coach & trainer Thomas Tichelman. Unequaled training - anywhere!

Sport Tour Design

Experience:
We have years of experience. But what is the definition of "experience"? To us it describes the extensive period of time necessary to cultivate a top performing, European coaching network - it means being able to find the hidden gems available to you as you travel throughout Europe and it means having the skill in designing and executing a top-flight itinerary - which maximizes your travel and field hockey experience - leaving you with increased skills and memories to last a lifetime.

Extensive European Hockey Network:
We have the contacts, which provide us, and you, with the best trainers, facilities and match locations throughout Europe.

Negotiating the Right Price:
Our behind the scene knowledge of the hospitality industry allows us to get the right price and pass that value along to you.

Staying at the Right Place:
You always stay at the right place with EuroTour - whether it's a hotel or college dorm - you stay at convenient and central locations that provide easy access to the sights and sounds of Europe (saving you valuable drive-times and transportation costs) at safe and clean accommodations. We don't do blind bookings - nor do we rely on our European friends to determine whether a hotel is suitable for American standards. We take that responsibility - We visit every hotel first.

Tour Design:
Timing, logistics and safety, plus a flair for the creation of fun and entertainment designed into the travel experience, play a major part in creating an enjoyable, rewarding and satisfying tour. Program components go far beyond the tangibles of where and when, to include: How much can be done comfortably in one day? How far to drive in any one travel segment? Convenient meal timing - stop where, when and for how long? How many people can eat at one time, at one location - how long will it take? Who will explain the local insights? 

A tour should be designed to provide maximum experience and minimum down time all while delivering a relaxing and rewarding true European adventure - worth every penny. This is our job - this is our mission!

Contracts & Agreements
We take ALL the guesswork out of the process and make sure the tour runs like clockwork. Over the years we've encountered just about every situation imaginable - pro & con - that's why we have secured a trusted group of vendors - bus companies, airlines, and restaurants - to name but a few - that we can always count on to deliver on our request and meet our expectations and standards.

Sport Tour Execution

Time Management:
We pride ourselves on the precise execution of our tours. Every tour is literally designed to the minute of everyday. There is absolutely no guesswork once we depart the USA. This provides players and coaches with a comfortable, satisfying and hassle free experience.

Tour Management:
Sport EuroTour programs always have a local staff Tour Manger. This allows traveling players and US coaches to enjoy the European experience to its fullest. Coaches can finally relax and have fun too.

Group Management:
We have worked with groups long enough to know the in & outs of effective group movement and management. Efficiency of group movement is the key to reducing wait and downtimes - two major goals for getting the absolute most out of your experience in Europe.
