San Sebastián showcase tour confirmed with Real Sociedad lined up as the opposition

RIASA are excited to announce plans for this year’s showcase tour which will take place from Tuesday 7th March – Thursday 9th March 2023.

This year we will be heading to the stunning resort town of San Sebastián, home of LaLiga side Real Sociedad who currently sit 3rd in the table underneath Barcelona and Real Madrid.

During the visit to Spain, RIASA will be staying at Olarain hotel, we will also have unprecedented access to the world-class facilities on offer at Real Sociedad.

We have training sessions planned, a stadium tour and more importantly we have lined up two competitive showcase fixtures against Real Sociedad academy on Wednesday 8th March 2023.

The training sessions and both showcase fixtures will take place at Sociedad’s Zubieta training ground. Nestled away in the hillside, this high-quality training facility offers a once in a lifetime playing opportunity for RIASA student-athletes.

Showcase tours are an excellent and exciting opportunity for the programme and the student-athletes who are involved. They allow our coaching staff the chance to ‘show off’ the talent amongst the RIASA roster in a highly competitive professional setting. 

This European tour once again highlights the unbelievable opportunities that are available at RIASA. Through our connections, we are able to offer amazing culturally rewarding experiences in which RIASA players get to compete against some of the best professional academies in the world.

We have a lot planned during our short 2 night, 3-day tour and the best way to keep up with everything that is happening is across our social media channels. Both of the showcase fixtures will be recorded and made available to watch at a later date on RIASA YouTube.

As always there will be lots of content that will be shared during our showcase tour including vlogs, images, videos, behind the scenes and more – support RIASA in Spain!

Everyone at RIASA is looking forward to this fantastic opportunity!
