Finally we are happily settled down in our new home. Even though some of us have to take a longer time to reach office from home, we feel a sense of belonging here.

The entire place does give the vibes of a sports agency. We are no longer a travel agency specialising in sports. We are now a Sports Agency that does many things and bespoke sports travel is one of our specialties.

One of Aaron’s favourite pastime is to buy football matches’ scarves and one might think that we have displayed a lot in the office already. But Lo and behold, this is not even one third of what Aaron has

Feel free to drop by anytime if you are bored and we challenge you to a basketball shootout or table soccer or darts and of course a mini goal post penalty shootout. Hmmm what other forms of entertainment should we add on?
