The starting five
Five things every Horizon tour is built on. The mix, the cities and the level of competition are built around your group.
Compete
Games against American teams, from high school programs to AAU tournaments, matched to your group's level.
Experience
Step onto American high school and college campuses and get a feel for daily life as a student-athlete.
Immerse
Watch college, NBA and big summer events live, and feel the full American arena atmosphere.
Explore
Downtime and sightseeing built into the schedule, so players see America off the court too.
Relax
Flights, accommodation, transport and game bookings are all taken care of, so players and families can enjoy the trip.
From enquiry to tip-off
Every tour is built from scratch around your group. Here's how we get you from first chat to first game.
- Step 1 · Check in
Tell us about your group
Age group, level, rough dates and what you want out of the trip.
- Step 2 · Plan the route
We design it together
Which state, the opponents, the campuses, the game nights and the downtime.
- Step 3 · Boarding
We book everything
Flights, accommodation, transport, games and tickets, with clear details for every family.
- Step 4 · Tip-off
Your team plays in the USA
Basketball and travel across America, with the logistics taken care of.
Players and coaches, not travel agents
We've lived these pathways ourselves, so we know what it takes to get a tour right. We're doing this to give every player, family, club and school an experience they'll never forget, from the first conversation to the final buzzer.
