Football Tour in Sri Lanka

10 Nights / 11 Days
Football is primarily played at a semi-professional and recreational level in Sri Lanka, where it is overshadowed by cricket, in particular, and rugby union. However, enthusiasm for the sport is high. Nowadays, there is a genuine enthusiasm for world football in Sri Lanka, with many fans expressing fierce loyalty to clubs from England, Spain, and beyond.
There are opportunities for a successful football tour in Sri Lanka, particularly for teams that place as much emphasis on the holiday aspect as the sport itself. Our sports division tailors the tour to your specific needs, bringing you the expertise and value-for-money deals that come with being a part of Sri Lanka’s largest tailor-made holiday company.
Football was introduced to Sri Lanka by the British in the 1890s. Members of the British military were the game’s pioneers, with the Royal Air Force, Royal Navy, and Royal Garrisons among the first to put football on the map in Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka joined FIFA in the 1950s, allowing the country to play competitive football at the international level for the first time. Despite reaching the second stage of qualification in 2006, the country has yet to qualify for the World Cup.
Whatever the case, you can count on a warm welcome. Explore an island rich in culture and diversity, and you’ll realize that Sri Lanka can be a truly exotic destination for a football tour. The island has a little bit of everything: beautiful tropical beaches, game parks, ruined cities, the stirring mountains of the hill country, and the charming capital of Colombo.
If you want a tailor-made football tour to Sri Lanka, SAZY will make it extra special.
