Are you a fan of Major League Baseball?

Have you ever considered going to see a live game?

In fact, there are 27 opportunities to do just that in 2023!

Is this the year you take a MLB Sports Break.

Have you ever considered going to Montreal to catch a game?

After a long winter, the city of Montreal comes to life during Spring, with temperatures starting to warm up from April.

With flights from as little as £300 each way and the Canadiens often involved in the playoff push shake-up, this is a trip we highly recommend taking in April.

Maybe not this year though eh (The Habs are already out of playoff contention)

Don't forget we build holidays that include tickets to any NHL team live, making it a breeze. The only hard part is deciding who you want to see!

Interesting! We were pretty sure that this sport was invented by holidaymakers.

It can often be seen on the beaches of the Mediterranean, when a friendly game of volleyball escalates. (After a Piña colada or two)

It turns out the sport is actually Sepak Takraw, which has Southeast Asian origins.

Sometimes called ‘kick volleyball’ the sport has been played since at least the 15th century. Players use their feet, knees, chest or head to get the rattan ball over the net.

Huh. Well, there you go. You live and learn!

Sponsored Player update - Dec Jones

At Away From Home we are proud to offer behind-the-scenes support to sports teams and we love to take that support a little further, by sponsoring local men and women where we can.

It has been an absolute pleasure this season to watch our sponsored player Dec Jones with the Hull Seahawks.

Dec has matured an awful lot this season in a short space of time.

This is the first time Dec has played at this level and he doesn’t look out of place in the NIHL.

With the Seahawks often short-benched, Dec has played more minutes and roles than expected, which has resulted in Dec improving week after week.

His ice time has included a lot of time on the penalty kill, and he has even found himself on the powerplay on the odd occasion.

Dec taking on roles in big game situations has given other players the chance to rest their legs on the bench.

This has to have been a huge help to the squad, who have suffered with the late arrival of imports, injuries, player departures and suspensions this season.

Dec currently sits on 6 points (1 goal and 5 assists)

And with around 7 weeks left to go, it is feasible that he could hit double figures by the end of the campaign.

Which would be a fantastic way to end his great season.

Where to go Wednesday - Japan

Japan is beautiful, mystical and extraordinary in equal measure.

Usually known for industrialisation, it is also home to historic shrines, temples, architecture, world-class restaurants, imperial palaces and natural wonders of the world.

Head to Hakone and Mount Fuji – a gorgeous mountainous town known for its hot springs resorts and Japan’s famous volcano.

Of course, there is the country’s capital Tokyo, but we prefer somewhere a little less well-known Matsue.

Matsue or the “samurai city”, boasts charming cultural and historic sites including a castle and a host of museums including the intriguing Inari Shrine’s fox statues.

Many different sports are played in Japan including traditional martial arts like judo and kendo, but it is baseball that is the nation's most popular.

Other favourites include football and many Japanese go to the sea for surfing and scuba in the summer. While skiing and snowboarding are popular winter pursuits.

With so much to see and do, is Japan, one for your must-do list?

Where to go Wednesday. Sports Stays – Porto Portugal.

Portugal’s second-largest city offers a beautiful setting, friendly locals and a food culture that makes it worth visiting for the cuisine alone.

Porto's popularity among tourists has not reached the levels of Lisbon yet, which means that it has kept many of the best things about it and lost none of its soul.

The town centre was named a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1996 due to its well-preserved buildings that range from the Romanic to the Modernist period. It's here where you'll find many interesting shops, restaurants and bars.

But of course, what any football fan knows Porto for is football. The team has a long history of success and has won the UEFA Champions League, the Europa League and 83 domestic trophies.

Porto is far from overrated or overcrowded and as one of the most affordable cities in Western Europe, it’s a great place to spend time and enjoy some sports.

Is it one for your list?

With this year's IIHF World Championships fast approaching, we take a look back at Great Britain's epic comeback to secure another year of top flight hockey in 2019.

Join us in Nottingham for our Sunday Social and enjoy 3 games of World championship hockey and pre-game beer and hockey chat!

Where to go Wednesday: A weekly look at the best times to visit locations for sports.

Today we turn our attention to the NFL and America.

This weekend is Super Bowl LVII as the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Philadelphia Eagles at Farm Stadium, Glendale, Arizona.

Now unless you are already in the States or currently packing for your trip, we assume you will be taking in this game and Rhianna's halftime show, from the comfort of your couch or a local sports bar.

But did you know that they announce the venues for the upcoming Super Bowls years in advance?

Paradise Nevada and New Orleans have already been announced as the locations for the next two events and both locations sit on the bucket lists of many UK travellers.

With so much to see and do in both areas and the addition of this iconic sporting event. Will February 2024 or 2025 be the year you take the plunge and experience the Super Bowl Live?
