Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a guest spot typically cost?

Costs vary by tournament and team, but typically range from $1,500-$3,500 covering tournament fees, accommodation, meals, and local transport. This is significantly less than full tour packages ($4,000-$8,000).

What's included in the cost?

Most guest spots include tournament registration, team accommodation, meals during the tournament, local transportation, and coaching. Flights and travel insurance are typically separate.

How do I know if a team is legitimate?

Look for our Verified badge (coach credentials checked), read parent reviews, request references, schedule a video call with the coach, and follow our safety guidelines checklist.

Can my child travel alone?

Most teams require a parent/guardian to travel with guest players under 16. Some teams offer chaperone services for older players. Always clarify supervision arrangements before committing.

What if my child doesn't fit with the team?

We recommend video calls and trial training sessions (if local) before committing. Review the team's refund policy carefully. Most teams offer partial refunds if notified 60+ days before departure.

How far in advance should I look for guest spots?

Popular tournaments fill up 3-6 months in advance. Start searching early, but last-minute opportunities do appear when teams have unexpected roster changes.
