The audience is encouraged to make a large contribution by encouraging the team with cheers and stamps, clapping and music to get the emotion going. Highly recommended for all ages.

Spain has more to offer than just beaches and swimming pools! If you are here in the winter time, why not take a trip to the historic city of Granada and enjoy the impressive Sierra Nevada slopes! These snowy peaks are located just over 4 hours drive (400km) to the south in the province of Andalucia. Well worth it for a weekend trip. The ski station is on the northwestern slopes of Veleta, the third highest peak in the Spanish peninsular and the most southerly ski resort of Europe.
