Train at KV Mechelen, KRC Genk or Proximus Basecamp, the base of the Red Devils, and explore Brussels, Bruges, Ghent and Antwerp.
Sports Tourz organizes soccer tours to Belgium for youth, academy and college teams, with pro training at KV Mechelen, KRC Genk or the Royal Belgian FA in Tubize. We add friendlies, city visits, hotels and a local tour leader.
Belgian soccer is technical and tactically flexible, with a strong focus on youth development. Expect well-organized clubs and good facilities.
Belgium is compact. Mechelen lies between Brussels and Antwerp, Tubize just outside Brussels, and Geel, home of our Yellow Soccer Cup, about 45 minutes from Antwerp.
A Belgian tour moves between a few well-connected cities for training, matches and sightseeing.
The capital and home of the European Union, with the Grand Place, the Atomium and Belgian chocolate.
Home of KV Mechelen, a top-flight club with one of Belgium's best youth academies, halfway between Brussels and Antwerp.
Home of Proximus Basecamp near Brussels, the training complex of the Belgian national teams since 2021.
A port city and a practical base for the Yellow Soccer Cup in Geel, about 45 minutes away.
Bruges for its canals, Ghent for its lively streets. Either makes a good day out between sessions.
Our three partners in Belgium are KV Mechelen, a top-flight club with one of the country's best academies, KRC Genk and the Royal Belgian FA. With the Royal Belgian FA you train at Proximus Basecamp in Tubize, the national teams' complex.
Tubize
The Royal Belgian Football Association (KBVB), founded in 1895, governs soccer in Belgium. In 2021 it moved to Tubize (Tubeke in Dutch), near Brussels.
Mechelen
KV Mechelen plays in the Belgian top flight, usually in the middle or upper half of the table. Its academy ranks among Belgium's best and values athletic and personal growth.
Genk
KRC Genk plays in the Belgian Pro League and has won four Belgian titles and five Belgian Cups. Its academy produced players such as Kevin De Bruyne, Thibaut Courtois and Leandro Trossard.
We arrange friendlies against Belgian clubs, matched to your age, level and goals. Options include a tour of KV Mechelen's AFAS Stadion and national team tickets (subject to availability). Our own Yellow Soccer Cup in Geel (U15 and U17, 27 and 28 March 2027) fits well into a Belgian tour.
Distances in Belgium are short, so sightseeing fits easily around your sessions and matches. Some options:
Belgians follow soccer closely, from local clubs to the Red Devils. Off the pitch there is history, architecture and good food. Belgium has more than one official language: Tubize is Tubeke in Dutch.
A base between Brussels and Antwerp keeps Mechelen, Tubize and the main cities close. Choose Budget hostels for youth groups, a Comfort 3-star or a Premium 4-star hotel.
Hostels that specialize in hosting youth groups. Dorm rooms for the players and twin rooms for the staff.
A 3-star hotel with twin rooms for the staff and twin or triple rooms for the players.
A 4-star hotel with twin rooms for the players and single rooms for the staff.
Combine pro training with two or three friendlies, your choice of accommodation and city visits. Private transport, meals and a local tour leader are included. Up to 4 days, stay in Belgium. With more days, add Holland or Germany, or plan around the Yellow Soccer Cup.
We, Victoria 17-1, had a fantastic weekend. The distance between the hotel and ASV Geel was perfect, the hotel and breakfast were great, and the hotel location was excellent. We also really enjoyed attending the match on Friday evening, the tournament schedule, and both lunches. A special thanks to all the helpful and hardworking people from the club and the organization. Everything was top-notch!
