Sports Team Transport for Every Club and Fixture in Kent

From Sunday league football to county athletics, we move sports teams of all sizes to fixtures, tournaments, training venues, and away trips across Kent and beyond.

Football & Rugby Club Transport

Home and away fixtures, cup games, and tournament days. Kit bags loaded, whole squad moved in one vehicle — no car-sharing logistics, no stragglers.

🏏

Cricket, Hockey & Athletics

Equipment-friendly transport for teams with kit, stumps, gear, and holdalls. We regularly cover fixture days, county matches, and inter-club competitions.

Multi-event tournament days where timing matters. Your team arrives together, on time — not staggered across several cars with different arrival times.

Weekend tournament transport and league fixture runs. One fixed price for the round trip — no parking stress for parents, no split arrivals at the venue.

Tournaments & Cup Days

Full-day tournament support — drop off, driver waits on site, and returns the squad at the end of the day. One vehicle, one price, the whole day sorted.

🚴

Cycling Events & Multi-Sport Days

Sportive support runs, triathlon logistics, and multi-discipline events. We transport athletes and their gear to start lines and collect at finish points.

What Clubs Say

Sports Team Transport Reviews from Kent Clubs

★★★★★
We use Kent Minibus Hire for every home and away fixture of the season — the whole squad in a 12-seater, kit loaded and ready to go. The driver is always early, the van is clean, and the price we agreed in August is still what we pay in April. Exactly what a Sunday league club needs.

★★★★★
Booked two 16-seaters for our county athletics tournament — junior and senior squads moving together. Both drivers were completely professional, arrived early, and our athletes were focused on competing rather than worrying about lifts. Highly recommended for any club moving large numbers.

★★★★★
We had an early 6am pickup for a cricket tournament in Surrey and the driver was there at 5:50. Kit and gear all loaded, team in good spirits, and we arrived fresh. The return trip after the final was exactly as agreed — no fuss, no extras on the bill. Will book again for every away day.
