Coach Hire for Sports Clubs & Teams
Travelling together by private coach provides sports teams with a dedicated transport arrangement for fixtures, competitions, training and other club commitments.

For longer journeys, suitable vehicles can be selected according to passenger numbers, luggage and equipment requirements.
Rugby, Cricket & Other Sports Team Transport
Our sports transport service is not limited to football.
Birley Travel can provide group transport for rugby clubs, cricket teams and organisations participating in a wide variety of team and individual sports.
Transport can be arranged for matches, competitions, tournaments, training camps and other sporting programmes throughout London and beyond.
Away Match Coach Hire
Away fixtures can involve substantial travel for players, coaches and support staff.
A dedicated coach allows the team to travel together according to a pre-arranged schedule, with collection and return arrangements built around the fixture.
Birley Travel can provide sports team transport from London to destinations throughout the UK, subject to the itinerary and driver-hours requirements.
Tournament & Multi-Day Sports Transport
For tournaments and sporting programmes operating over several days, Birley Travel can provide transport as part of the wider itinerary.
This may include journeys between hotels, training facilities, stadiums, competition venues and other locations required by the team.
Providing the complete itinerary allows our team to understand the overall transport requirement and recommend suitable vehicle arrangements.
Sports Team Airport Transfers
Teams arriving in London by air can combine their airport transfer with the wider sports transport requirement.
Birley Travel provides private group transfers from Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton and London City Airport, with onward travel to hotels, stadiums, training facilities and other destinations.

Transport for International Sports Teams
Birley Travel can provide transport for international teams and sporting organisations visiting London and the UK.
A programme may include airport collection, hotel transfers, training sessions, fixtures, events and onward travel to other UK destinations.
Where a team is travelling as part of a larger international programme, our experience handling organised group itineraries allows the transport to be planned around the schedule provided.
Coach Hire for Team Equipment & Luggage
Sports teams may travel with substantially more equipment and luggage than an ordinary passenger group, so vehicle selection should consider storage requirements as well as seating capacity.
Our larger 33, 49 and 53 seater coaches provide underfloor luggage storage, making them particularly useful for groups travelling with suitcases and team equipment.
Tell us what equipment the team expects to carry when requesting a quotation so we can consider this when recommending a vehicle.
Minibus & Coach Options for Sports Teams
Birley Travel operates executive minibuses and coaches in several capacities:
-
16 Seater Executive Minibus
-
22 Seater Executive Minibus
-
33 Seater Executive Coach
-
49 Seater Executive Coach
-
53 Seater Executive Coach
The appropriate vehicle will depend on the size of the squad, number of staff, luggage, equipment and journey requirements.
Our 22 seater configuration does not have dedicated boot space, so storage requirements are particularly important when considering this vehicle for a sports team.
Executive Coach Hire for Professional Teams
For professional teams, clubs and sporting organisations requiring well-presented transport, Birley Travel provides executive coaches with experienced professional drivers.
Vehicles can be used for team movements as well as coaching staff, management and other personnel travelling as part of the programme.
For larger requirements involving more than one passenger group, multiple vehicles can also be coordinated.
