Hockey Tour Ideas for 2018

As your thoughts move to the new hockey season, which is just a few weeks away, it is a good time to begin considering and planning your next tour. We always recommend having some plans in place before the season starts. This gives you plenty of time to collect deposits and final balances, allows your players to book time off work, and have a brainstorm about all the fancy dress themes!
