Sports teammates loading equipment into a passenger van
Plan around the full event schedule
A team trip involves more than reaching the first match. Players, supporters and equipment may need different arrival times, meal stops and departure arrangements. Write one shared timetable before choosing between a single vehicle and several rentals. OCR’s sports-team transport guide helps organisers put the essential requirements together without assuming that every group needs the same arrangement.
Measure the bulky items
Ask about kit bags, protective equipment, coolers and anything that cannot be packed into a normal suitcase. Provide approximate dimensions alongside the occupant count. Keep equipment safely secured and preserve the required seats for every traveller. Read the group-vehicle checklist before requesting availability so the rental team receives useful details in the first enquiry.
Agree who is responsible for what
Nominate the organiser, approved drivers and the person keeping the return instructions. This is self-drive rental, so do not assume a chauffeur or dedicated transfer is included. Confirm each driver's eligibility and any additional-driver charges. Give the group a clear loading time and include a buffer before flights or venue commitments. Review the complete team-rental page together so questions about passengers, bags, collection and parking are settled before arrival.
