Philosophy

what are the tours about?

Each tour is designed to give participants and their families a life experience through international travel based around baseball. New, and sometimes lifelong friendships will be established through our overseas billeting program. Our tours not only give the players an opportunity to play baseball in the USA, we also factor in time for sightseeing, cultural and educational experiences and fun attractions such as Disneyland, Universal Studios, The San Diego Zoo and SeaWorld San Diego. All trips also feature at least 2 Major League baseball games.

what is to be achieved on our tours?

A new found maturity and increased knowledge of another country are two of the immediate benefits you will see in your child as s result of travelling overseas on one of our tours. Couple that with new friendships, both at home and abroad, and the opportunity to play baseball and experience life in the U.S.A. You will also visit at least 2 Major League games at venues such as Dodger Stadium, Anaheim Stadium, Petco Park in San Diego or Bank One Ballpark on our Arizona tours. All things considered we believe that our tours provide a life experience for all participants, and one that won't be easily forgotten.

 

value of going on one of our tours

The value in attending a Big League Experience tour should not be measured purely against dollars and cents. Travel of any kind, and especially overseas in a controlled, safe and structured environment such as the one we are committed to providing is an education in itself. Having said that, however, let me say that past tour attendees have responded positively to all aspects of our tours including the "value for money" component. We invite you to visit tour attendees responses by clicking on the Participant Responses link at the top of this page.

 

tours tailored to suit your organisation

Tours can be tailored to suit the individual requirements of any team or organisation. From purely baseball, through to baseball / recreation and all areas in between. As an example, Big League Experience organised a tour in July 2004 on behalf of the Geelong Baseball League Academy Inc. to California, Oregon & Washington. The tour incorporated 9 games for the team including competition in a 4 day tournament in Corvallis, Oregon at the Oregon State University and also a game at Washington University in Seattle. The group experienced 2 Major League games in Los Angeles & Seattle. Alternatively we are able to structure tours in and around Southern California/ Arizona/Chicago through our Pony League connections on purely "friendship" basis.
