With its iconic sightseeing destinations, a trip to the United States provides an interesting alternative to the usual touring destinations. Although mainly associated with baseball, basketball and American football, the United States also play rugby, football (soccer) and (field) hockey to a competitive level. Swimming, tennis and athletics are also options for your touring side.
California & Florida tend to be the most popular areas to tour but rugby in particular is popular around New York and California. Both cricket & netball are played in Florida where there is a strong influence from its Caribbean population, although the fixtures will mainly be against club sides rather than schools.
In terms of sightseeing the list is endless. From the theme parks of California and Florida to the iconic sights of New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Washington there is so much to see and do. The Grand Canyon, Boston & New England, and the ski resorts of Colorado all offer the visitor different sightseeing experiences.
