Jeff Sokol - Rose-Hulman Institute Head Coach

"Playing in the Vienna Charity Bowl was an incredible experience for every person on our trip. The
coaches and players appreciated the quality of play and the challenge the Austrians provided. The
parents and fans really enjoyed the atmosphere and enthusiasm of the crowd. The game in Vienna was
a phenomenal way to cap off an incredible trip, including the first days in Prague. "

Jim Margraff – Johns Hopkins Head Football Coach (former)
“Our trip to Italy was nothing short of spectacular. After many years of hearing wonderful reviews from
friends and colleagues of other programs who have traveled with Global Football, I had high
expectations for our trip to Italy. Those expectations were exceeded in every possible way as Global
Football created an adventure that was not only educational and fun, but also created lifelong
memories for our players, coaches and friends of Johns Hopkins Football. It was a pleasure working with
Global Football which is run by true professionals who handled every detail imaginable, big and small.“

Jeff Thorne - North Central College Head Coach (2019 NCAA DIII National Champions)
"Our National Championship season drive began with our trip to Germany and Prague, which provided
our players and coaches with the ideal environment to learn together and to bond into a cohesive team.
Each time we have traveled with Global Football we have returned to win the Conference, and this time
we went on to win the National Championship. These experiences work in many ways!“

Joe Austin - Southwestern University, former Hanover College Head Coach

“Global Football is a huge part of our continued program growth. Their trips are educational, fantastic
team-builders, and are tremendous value for the money. I have been a part of five Global Football trips
with two schools and they have all exceeded my expectations. If you ask my players, they will tell you
travelling with Global Football was the highlight of their college experience.”

make us a better team, and them better people."
