Just wanted to say
thank you for organising the tour to Nijmegen. All the feedback has been amazing, a good time had by all, the u15’s winning was a bonus - but
nothing but praise for the accommodation, tournament, theme park and basically everything’’.
Alison Sneddon-Coombes, Weston Crusaders
IN OUR OPINION The Nijmegen Easter Cup is a suitable event for clubs requiring a tournament which isn’t too strong. It’s also ideal for clubs who enter more than one team, as all pitches are on on one venue. Nijmegen is a delightful city and we expect a high level of interest for the second tournament in 2013.
