Making a difference with our goals at Chelsea!

The Travel Network Group teamed up with our brilliant Members recently to play in the travel industry’s top football tournament, the MSC Cup. Our aim was to score goals and, by doing so, to raise money for the wonderful children’s charity Reuben’s Retreat. The MSC Cup is organised by Chelsea FC Official Partners MSC Cruises.

Before the competition we pledged to donate £250 to Rueben’s Retreat for every goal scored.

Reuben’s Retreat works with families who have suffered the loss of a child or who have a child living with medical complexities, offering them the chance to escape and recharge in countryside facilities.

We played on Chelsea’s iconic Stamford Bridge pitch, as Cup holders from 2019, under the watchful eye of Chelsea heroes Gianfranco Zola and Carlo Cudicini. Unfortunately, we lost out in the end to White Hart Associates. This followed a fantastic run of four wins and a draw, during the day, on the way to the Cup Final.

The impressive 13 goals scored by the TTNG team in their Cup run, secured the amazing sum of £3,250 for Reuben’s Retreat as part of a total donation of over £30,000 by all competitors.

The mixed team of men and women included players from our fantastic Members:-

  • Triangle Travel Limited
  • Holidays 4 Golfers Ltd
  • Tomorrow’s Travel Today
  • My Kind of Cruise
  • Thames Travel
  • Bespoke Travel


together with players from The Travel Network Group.

The Travel Network Group CEO Gary Lewis, who also put on his boots to play for the team,  said: “To show our support for the wonderful work done at Reuben’s Retreat, we pledged to donate £250 for each goal that our team scored, so we were determined to reach a big goal tally.”

Thank you to all of our Members, players and supporters for making a ‘goal’ difference at the MSC Cup!
