Late winter deals and new FTG Algarve and UK training camps -February 2012
 Full Time Group (FTG) is offering great value late winter training deals for February and March 2012 to help teams to recharge mentally and physically for the rest of the season.
These are available now at existing and new FTG 5 star and 4 star venues for specialist professional football training camps and general sports training, both in the sunny Algarve in Portugal and in the UK.
Inspection visits can be organised immediately for interested parties for winter 2012 training breaks, or to help with planning summer 2012 pre-season training camps and autumn or winter 2012-2013.
After discussing your exact needs, either over the telephone or in person, FTG will send you full details on all resort facilities, up to date availability and individually tailored packages, with pricing to suit your specific requirements and budget.
FTG is also happy to advise on or handle travel arrangements through our very experienced travel agency partner.
All FTG resorts in the Algarve, and at the carefully selected luxury hotels and relaxing spas spread throughout the UK, have their own top quality private training pitches, state of the art gymnasiums, specialist professional football, sports and leisure facilities.
Danny Stones, Managing Director of FTG, comments 'As we have very close relationships with the resorts to drive their year round business revenue, and with the number of football teams, sport and business groups that we take to them, we are able to offer our FTG clients the best prices, service and conditions - guaranteed.'
Whilst FTG resorts have a strict one team at a time policy to ensure privacy and exclusive use of the superb pitches, the company has excellent local Portuguese, international and UK club contacts to help our clients to arrange training games and high quality friendly matches whenever required.
Ian Holloway, Manager of Blackpool FC, who recently organised a training camp with FTG commented 'I would give our training camp 12 out of 10! In all my time as a player and manager this is the best training camp I have been on. The venue itself and overall environment were perfect for the balance of what we needed. We worked hard with 17 sessions on the excellent quality pitch, used the high quality gym, luxury pool and private team meeting rooms and importantly also recharged mentally after what has been a non-stop two years for our club. Great organisation by Danny Stones of Full Time Group.'
Matt Williams, Club Secretary of Blackpool FC: ‘Once it was agreed that we would undertake a training camp, I was left with very little time to source a suitable venue and facilities. We contacted the Full Time Group who were a breath of fresh air. They arranged an inspection visit for our coaching staff and then all I had to do was book the flights as the Full Time Group did the rest. The pricing was competitive and the trip was great value, payment terms were easy and communication from Danny Stones and his staff were first class throughout. To have Danny on site ensured no headaches for me back in the office and allowed our coaching staff to focus their attentions on the job at hand.'
