There’s a strong netball culture in Sri Lanka, which means strong opposition for your team. It’s this, coupled with the opportunity to explore this beautiful country and its rich culture that make Sri Lanka a great choice for your next school netball tour.

You’ll stay in fantastic accommodation as you travel around the country, taking on local teams and sharing your passion for netball. Off the court, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a number of exciting activities, from visiting an elephant sanctuary to a traditional temple.

Your students will never forget their school netball tour to Sri Lanka, when they experienced the incredible way that sport unites us, and gives us the opportunity to discover other cultures.
