Who We Are

American Pride Events was founded in 2018 with the goal of providing truly exceptional sports travel experiences to Australia. President and owner, Ed Ryder, is a veteran of both college coaching and the international sports event and management industry. Since 1991 he's taken teams literally all over the world, including 20 times Down Under.

​

Some may call us an "elite boutique" sports tour company because we play national teams and specialize in such a particular market but, to us, that sounds expensive. We pride ourselves in offering the best tours to Australia at the best prices . . . and most importantly, at the best value-for-money. These tours are way more than sports to us, they are designed to be one of the greatest sports, cultural, and educational experiences of a lifetime.

We're teachers and coaches first, tour operators second.
