Welcome to School Sports Tours
2010 Cricket Tours
India is an enchanting land captivated by its diverse landscape and ancient traditions. Dominated by the Worlds largest mountain chain; the Himalayas, India is set apart from the rest of Asia, not only in geographical sense but also because it has individual charm!
Indian people have always held cricket close to their hearts and, with the introduction of the
Indian Premier League, the passion for the game in India is currently immense! Never has
it been a better time to visit India, with the IPL drawing in huge crowds and packing out
stadiums.
India School Cricket Tours are organising a 20/20 cricket festival in conjunction with Pacific
Classic Indian Tours. The festival will run over 3 days and your team will have the opportunity
to play against other English teams and local Indian teams. The festival will be held in the City
of New Delhi, a rich and vibrant city, often the first port of call for most travelling to India.
We also do school cricket tours to Sri Lanka
