Over the Michaelmas half-term break, a squad of Shell and Remove footballers embarked on an unforgettable tour to Munich, Germany, enjoying a fantastic few days packed with football, culture and memorable experiences. One of the tour highlights was watching the 2026 Ballon d’Or winner and England Captain, Harry Kane, score for Bayern Munich as they swept aside RB Leipzig 6-0 at the Allianz Arena. The electric atmosphere and chance to see world-class players such as Kane, Michael Olise and Luis Díaz up close provided real inspiration for the boys and a valuable opportunity to learn from some of the very best in the game.
During the tour, the squad trained at the renowned Bayern Munich Campus, where many of the club’s brightest young talents develop their skills. The boys also took on two local teams, testing themselves against new opposition and gaining valuable experience while strengthening their teamwork on and off the pitch.
Away from football, the group immersed themselves in Munich’s rich culture, visiting the impressive BMW Showroom, exploring the Olympic Park and enjoying a behind-the-scenes tour of the Allianz Arena. These experiences gave the boys a deeper insight into the city and a change to enjoy the culture on offer.
Throughout the trip, the squad represented the school superbly, embracing every opportunity with enthusiasm, maturity and teamwork. Reflecting on the tour, Remove pupil Enzo said: “I really enjoyed being part of the trip, and it is definitely an experience I will remember for a long time.”
