Programme French International Festival of Rugby

Friday

Teams arrive at their accommodation by means of their preferred option of a ferry or the euro tunnel. Some teams may have the option of flying to the event. When settled in they can use the facilities available at their hotel as the evening is spent at their leisure.

Saturday

Buses will be on hand to transfer you to and from the accommodation and the tournament site.

It’s day one of the rugby programme where teams will participate against other teams drawn in their group in the pool stages. Please note, on occasions where the entry level is very high some group games may fall over in to Sunday morning to complete fixtures.

Once the rugby has finished for the day it is time to relax and enjoy the facilities on offer at your accommodation base.

Sunday

Once again buses will be at the ready to transfer you to and from the holiday village and the tournament site.

Day two of the rugby programme will see the quarter finals, semi finals and finals played. No matter where you finished after day one of the group stage you are assured to be in a competitive tournament on the Sunday with teams who finished at the top of the group from Saturday's games going on to the major cup event, teams who finished mid table going on to the Challenge Cup event and teams which finished at the lower end of the group going on to participate within the Shield event.

On occasions where the entry level is very high a fourth level tournament will be introduced to ensure all involved enjoy two days of competitive rugby.

Presentations will be made to the winners and runners up of each tournament in true Team Tours Direct style.

Now the rugby is over it is time to enjoy your remaining evening of fun with your team at your accommodation base.

Monday

Time has come to depart your accommodation after a truly great rugby weekend away with your team.
