THE SECRETS OF SUCCESSFUL SPORT TRAVEL MANAGEMENT
WATCH ON DEMAND
Tune in to our first-ever Travel Talks webinar from Gray Dawes Sport, hosted in association with the Welsh Sports Association (WSA). Join our very own Jonathan Hutton, Head of Operations, and Michelle Sample, Sports Team Manager, as they share their top tips and expert insights into sport travel management.
EXPERIENCE IS EVERYTHING
SPORTS TRAVEL CONSULTANCY
Knowing the best hotels that are closest to the stadium is one thing. Understanding if they’re suitable for your player’s unique demands is quite another.
That level of knowledge only comes from decades of experience working with some of the biggest and most discerning names in sport, including Arsenal’s Arsene Wenger and Denis Bergkamp to Sebastian Coe.
Our Sports Consultancy Team work with you to fully understand your team’s strategic objectives for travel management. We’ll then put in place policy proposals designed to meet and exceed those goals, including budget control, VIP treatment, policy adherence and duty of care solutions. In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic, keeping players and staff safe has never been more important. Creatively managing travel during these unprecedented times is just part of our innovative service.
