COACH TESTIMONIALS
GSC knows and understands the tournament situation throughout Europe. Our players have utilized their services and found them to be incredibly helpful. On our team trip to Paris and Barcelona in 2015, Marc coordinated our party of 20 student-athletes, coaches, and boosters. He was a tremendous liaison, arranging our trip to Roland Garros, our transportation, and being a great facilitator. In addition, Marc orchestrated our match in Barcelona, right next to Camp Nou, which was a another highlight of our trip.
BRAD DANCER, ILLINOIS MEN’TENNIS COACH
“GSC created a once in a lifetime experience for our team at the University of New Mexico.
From start to finish, Marc Legris executed every detail necessary to facilitate the perfect trip. GSC professionals can handle any situation.
Certainly a comfort when student athletes compete or travel abroad.
