Coach,

My name is Patrick Steenberge and I was fortunate to have the honor to

play Quarterback and letter two seasons under coach Ara Parseghian at
Notre Dame. It was at school that I learned the importance of teamwork
and also of the power, influence and importance of international travel.

Global Sports Tours is an international sports travel organization

providing the opportunity for young amateur athletes from different
countries to compete against one another, while experiencing and
learning first-hand about each other's cultures, customs and history.

Established in 1996, we now celebrate our 25 th anniversary and express

our thanks to the 370+ global teams and more than 17,000 global
travelers that have explored the world together with us.

We invite you to join us and the Arkansas State Red Wolves rugby team
in Tokyo, Japan during the spring break of 2022 where we will enjoy this

world-class city and play against competitive Japanese rugby teams from
elite local universities such as Tsukuba, Waseda and Meiji.

At Global Sports Tours we believe in, and indeed see every year, the
incredible effect of educational sports travel. At the beginning of each

new athletics season hundreds of our travelers (players, staff, coaches,
family, fans and friends included) return home better citizens, more
confident, more enthusiastic in the classroom and on the playing field;

more engaged in the world around them; better prepared for life and
more likely to make a difference to each other as teammates.

Lead an educational Global Sports Tour with us and you’ll get your
students’ attention and keep it. And best of all you’ll make a difference in

their lives. I encourage you to contact one of your fellow coaches who
have traveled with us to hear about their experiences.

Let’s play in the Global Stadium!

Patrick Steenberge

President of Global Sports Tours
