Coaches Quotes

“We took a foreign tour with Anthony Travel in August of
2009. The trip was instrumental in building team chemistry
and conﬁdence going into our season. The international
basketball games challenged our veteran players, while
providing meaningful minutes for our newcomers. Our trip
was highly organized-- the travel accommodations, Anthony
Travel staff members and cultural sightseeing were all
incredibly done.’’

Coaches Quotes

“We loved the trip – Leo was terriﬁc! He had a great
demeanor with the girls and was an excellent tour guide. Jim
did a great job also – it was good to have them along to allow
Stephanie (Director of Basketball Operations) and our
managers to really enjoy things without worrying about
anyone or anything. Thanks for setting it up so perfectly. A
great time was had by all!”
