3Step Sports and Inspiresport Celebrate Tremendous First Phase of Partnership

Following a hugely successful first phase of partnership together, both 3Step Sports and inspiresport are excited to continue developing international youth sports travel programs for the 3Step network of players, coaches and families. Since November 2023, 10 soccer teams from multiple clubs throughout the 3Step network have visited Spain, Portugal and the U.K. and have been fortunate enough to gain access, through inspiresport, to clubs such as Real Madrid C.F., Valencia C.F., Manchester City F.C., Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C., FC Porto, SL Benfica and Celtic F.C amongst others. For example, Seacoast United took 4 teams and 130 people to The Donosti Cup in San Sebastian in July, that was preceded by time in Barcelona with professional club RCD Espanyol.

The groups that traveled were also able to take advantage of live games in The Premier League, La Liga and the Primeira Liga as part of the trips, with inspiresport being able to provide tickets through its sister company, and another 3Step partner, Sportsbreaks.com. With well over 300 passengers traveling internationally in less than a year, both organizations are excited to continue to provide this offering into 2025 and beyond, with sports such as Basketball, Rugby and Volleyball now available via inspiresport in addition to Soccer.

Inspiresport Senior Vice President, Phil Edwards said:

“We are beyond delighted with the first year of the partnership with 3Step and the fantastic experiences we have already been able to provide to 3Step teams. It is very important to us to be able to continue to deliver the best programs, provide exclusive access to elite clubs and facilities and ensure we always deliver an enriching cultural experience to 3Step and its clubs. As we move into more sports, our focus will always be on outstanding customer service and trip execution, working with the clubs to ensure we deliver the objectives they want to achieve from international youth sports travel.”

3STEP Vice President of Soccer Ian Burgess said:

“The partnership with inspiresport has taken us to a new level, being able to offer access to professional organizations in the world of youth sport. We have seen first-hand how this benefits our clubs and their families, and we have been impressed with the level of service and attention to detail paid to every single aspect of these trips. We are keen to continue to promote and develop these areas through the years ahead as nobody else in the market can offer what inspiresport does.”
