Why Tryavna

An exclusive tournament in a unique setting in the centre of Bulgaria, and a good start to the pre-season. Tryavna is a museum town, a centre of woodcarving and icon painting with distinctive architecture. Families get excellent pitches, several swimming pools, organic food, excursions, games and gifts, so the tournament combines easily with a family holiday. Teams can also hold a training camp before the tournament.
