Earlier this Summer the Snakes squad had a trip to California as an end of GCSE celebration.

Well worth the effort....
- Robert G

A total of 11 boys plus 5 dads were able to make it for the week, and all had a fantastic time.

A great Idea from Justin in 2016 left a lot to organise (Robert) but we got there OK and had a great time!

Amongst other things.....

  • We saw an LA Galaxy match with Zlatan Ibrahimovic scoring a hat-trick;
  • We played two really exciting matches against a couple of LA Galaxy San Diego youth development teams;
  • Steve Kay celebrated his birthday in San Diego !
  • We nearly saw the Hollywood sign (twice);
  • and we had some really good days out while we were there too.

The boys behaved themselves surprisingly well and we also managed to get 11 boys back home again and return them to their parents.

Would recommend every team tries a tour (once !)
