The end of April was a whirlwind for GSE, with our staff working tirelessly to deliver world-class experiences across Europe and the U.S.

From stepping onto the field at San Siro before a Serie A match to touring Anfield right before Liverpool clinched their 20th league title, the memories made were nothing short of incredible. Our players competed in Rome with the Vatican chapel in the background — and even experienced VAR firsthand — while others witnessed Europa League quarterfinals go to dramatic penalty shootouts. We hosted a white-glove EPL matchday experience, cooked homemade group paella in Spain, and watched our Canadian squads take on Crystal Palace and PSV in Barcelona. And that’s just a glimpse of everything that made this month so special.

Behind every moment was an incredible team effort. Across this stretch, we moved 175 travelers through Rome, 70 through Milan, 100 through Valencia, 35 through England, and 50 through Barcelona alongside our International Development Academy teams. We hosted 42 teams at the Valencia tournament, 26 teams at the Italy tournament, and sent 10 teams to Orlando for the Easter Cup.

The scale, energy, and attention to detail it took to pull this off were immense — and it showed. We’re proud of what we accomplished to close out the month and even more excited for what’s ahead.
