WSS and Sweden Soccer Tour Gothia Cup
WSS has been making our mark at the Gothia Cup over the past 20 years. A few of our teams have even qualified for the later rounds of the competition. This year we hope to achieve our greatest success. World Soccer will compete in the cup and see all the interesting sights of Gothenburg, Sweden for 8 unbelievable days. The number of games is based on the team’s performance, 4 are guaranteed and friendly games are available. Furthermore if selected after Sweden we will board a flight for a brief voyage across the North Sea to England. Once in England, the group will transfer to Royal Holloway College just outside of London. While in England, we will play friendly games and sight-see with your included city pass for 2-5 days. London will amaze you with its many attractions. As always, World Soccer will attend an English Premier League preseason match.
