With the cricket season now officially done and dusted, stumps, mowers, kit bags and whites (and coloured kits) all stored away for a few months, now is the ideal time to start thinking about your club’s tour for 2025.

Yes, it might sound a bit peculiar to be talking about next year's cricket season already, however our experience tells us you can never plan far enough ahead.

In fact many clubs already have their plans for next year already in place with us to destinations including Devon, Kent, Norfolk, Yorkshire. the Midlands and Wales.

Plus by getting your plans in place now there is that air of satisfaction knowing that you don’t have to think about anything until next year and indoor nets starting back up, if not later.
Leave it until next year and it may be too late.

So why not get your dates in order, get your ideas and plans moving and get GCST to provide you with a quote for your 2025 Cricket Tour.

And whilst our website is currently undergoing a few final touches before it is relaunched, GCST are offering a series of offers for enquiries made via Facebook.

Simply drop a comment to this post below or send a DM and we will be in touch to start making your plans for next year a reality.

👍👊👏 It's always great to receive feedback from clubs and teams on how their tours went and their thoughts to the services provided.

It helps us understand what made a tour successful, what went right (hopefully everything) and if anything could be improved upon.

So here's a reminder that if you have been on tour and used GCST's services this year or even in the last few years, or even been part of our services that have seen touring teams and clubs come to you, you can add a review about the services Great Central Sports Tours offer and provide on both

Mind you, for those 10 there's probably another 50-100 that could easily go on that list too.

Our story and what we do

Great Central Sports Tours was born out of the love of playing sport, meeting and connecting with people on and off the sporting field, visiting new places and sporting venues, coupled with decades of experience of managing and arranging sporting activity for grassroots sporting clubs.

As for the Great Central element, the name was drawn from our location - central England - and in particular our own personal roots; on the very doorstep of what was the Great Central Railway which came into and passed through Rugby and back out into the Warwickshire, Northamptonshire and Leicestershire countryside.

The railway itself is sadly now long gone (locally it is now a leisure walk and cycle route) and Rugby is more acclaimed to being the birthplace of the game (which is one element to our services), but one of the Great Central’s original ideals of being located in the heart of the country and being able to send people on their travels in any direction north, east south or west resonates with what we do.

So what do we do?
