Testimonials
"On behalf of Dhahran High School, the boys in the team we brought down, Brian and myself, please accept our sincere thanks for the fantastic weekend of football arranged by you in Dubai.
Everyone remarked on what a well executed operation you guys ran. The plane ride was great value, with what seemed like brand new planes and the leg room afforded was very good for a short-haul flight. Flying into Sharjah was fine in terms of traffic (certainly much less than Dubai). The hotel and the food was great and the gent's that ferried us around from place to place in busy Dubai showed exceptional patience! We also appreciated all the extra little things you both did to enhance our experience, like presenting the group with a special glass participation trophy, and the flexibility in changing the social outings at short notice.
The football itself was excellent and the pitches superb. This is especially true of the Jebel Ali, with it's lush greens likening it to a billiards table.
As a result I have no hesitation in recommending your services at 'The Onion Bag', to the administration and staff of Dhahran High School (or any other school), given our complete satisfaction resulting from our Dubai trip.
I feel very confident, whether I am involved in the High School soccer program or not, that in the future the school will remain in contact with you guys and plan many more enjoyable weekend tournaments for a variety of sports, ages and genders.
Thank you again for all your hard work and effort."
Ancel Lewars (Coach), Dhahran High School, Saudi Arabia

“On behalf of the BSAK girls, I would like to say thank you for a great tournament at the weekend. They are all still talking about it!”
Naomi Connor, British School Al Khobariat, Abu Dhabi
“I thoroughly enjoyed being part of the U15 tournament in Dubai and I look forward to the chance of returning next year. The onionbag boys running the show were friendly, helpful and well organised. The footy was good, played competitively but with a sportsmanship that was a credit to the boys, coaches and schools alike. And the thing about Dubai is that there’s plenty to do and see at the end of the day. Keep up the good work boys!”
Peter Nielsen-Vold, Khartoum International Community School, Sudan
“Thanks again for today - I've had 6 thank-you text to my phone from the girls already!!! Clearly enjoyed themselves”
