From 2026 and beyond, Oxfordshire Regional Talent Centres will be leading a new programme of football-focused Day Trips and Excursions, designed to connect young people, families, schools and teams with the game at its very best.

These experiences offer unique access to professional football environments, iconic venues and inspiring settings across the UK, providing memorable opportunities to learn, explore and experience football beyond the training pitch.

What are RTC Football Excursions?

RTC football excursions are one-day experiences that immerse participants in the professional game. Trips may include stadium visits, behind-the-scenes tours, training experiences at elite facilities, matchday attendance and football-led learning opportunities.

Each excursion is carefully planned and delivered with the same professionalism, care and values that underpin all Oxfordshire RTC programmes.

Who are these Experiences For?

Our day trips and excursions are open to:

• Oxfordshire RTC players and families
  
• External teams and clubs
  
• Schools and educational groups
  
• Parents and children looking for football-led experiences
  
• Whether attending as part of a team, a school group or as individual families, participants can expect a well-organised, inclusive and enriching experience.

Partnering with the Game’s Best

Oxfordshire RTC works with trusted partners and professional organisations across the football landscape to deliver high-quality experiences. By partnering with the game’s best, we aim to provide meaningful access to environments that inspire ambition, curiosity and a deeper understanding of football.

These partnerships allow participants to see how the game operates at different levels and to connect with football in ways that go beyond watching from the stands.

What a Typical Excursion Might Include

While each trip is unique, experiences may include:

• Stadium tours and behind-the-scenes access
  
• Training or workshops at professional facilities
  
• Live matchday experiences
  
• Group activities that promote teamwork and reflection
  
• Programmes are adapted to suit the age, group size and objectives of those attending.
