The most amazing and heartwarming experience of my life. Being able to spend 5 weeks with these incredible people has really changed my whole perspective and purpose on life! UTS are incredible and made me feel so welcomed in South Africa. I will miss this little family so much. Would honestly recommend anyone to do this trip - life changing! ❤️

One of the best experiences I have ever done! An incredible way to learn, travel, challenge yourself and make a positive difference within the sports development realm. All done with the support of a close knit team behind you every step of the way!

Going to Mauritius with UTS was the best experience of my life. I got to experience an amazing country from such an incredible perspective, it gave us the opportunity to really engage with the culture-something i will remember for life. The coaching was so enjoyable and working with the people there was so rewarding. I truly can't recommend this to anyone more!
