Known for being refreshing and fun, days out are one of the most exciting things you can do if you find yourself bored or in need of a change of scenery. Whether you are an active person who is on a quest to have a day full of adventure or a football fan who is going to a game, there are many different types of people who like to go on a day out. In particular, this year Spurs fans are gearing up for an exciting day away as Tottenham start their 2023/24 Premier League season on August 13 at Brentford. With this in mind, it is worth exploring what key essentials travelling fans need when it comes to a Spurs day away.

Firstly, despite Tottenham’s unfortunate end to the last season, many Spurs fans are looking forward to the new manager’s debut season. With this new wave of optimism, many football enthusiasts are bringing an array of things with them such as a handy battery charger so that they can be fully prepared for travelling. In fact, not only are portable power banks extremely lightweight but bringing one with you also means you can now charge your device on the move. So, if you want to take pictures of yourself at the football game or of the action itself its easier than ever to do so without worrying about your phone dying. Although most up to date battery packs can work with multiple devices, make sure to find one that is compatible with yours.

Moreover, football fans who are on the go will also need food and water for the journey. In order to have a fun filled football themed say away, it is vital to keep your energy levels up and prevent dehydration. Not only will this mean that you will have more time to actually watch the game and less time spent in queues, but you could also save money in the long run as food and drinks sold in football venues can be quite expensive. Of course, if you are a football fan and don’t have the chance or time to go on a Spurs day away, the great news is that you can replicate this experience at home by playing games like big bass bonanza.

Furthermore, one key item that every travelling football fan should have is a book to help keep the boredom at bay while you are travelling. A good idea is to buy a football themed book as you will be able to learn all about football while preparing to travel to the match. Nowadays, there are a huge abundance of books based on football including ‘The Essential Football Fan’ which is the ultimate guide to football grounds. This is an incredibly useful book as it it provides key information including how to get to certain football venues as well as recommendations for where to eat in the area. Books like this should quell any worries you have about travelling to the stadium as any questions that you have will be answered including prices for tickets and the facilities of each venue.

Of course, when you are travelling for a football away day it is important to take safety measures before doing so in order to keep your belongings safe and secure. One way of doing this is to purchase a backpack with a zipper. This should keep items such as your phone and your wallet away from prying eyes. If you truly want to show your support to Tottenham, you can also get a backpack that keeps in line with the team’s theme, whether that is by sporting their logo or their colours.

Moreover, you should also take into consideration the weather when you are attending a football away game. For example, if it is an extremely sunny day it would be a wise idea to take a sunhat or a pair of sunglasses with you in case the sun gets in your eyes. A strong sun in the sky can actually obscure your vision and detract your attention away from the game. Protecting your eyes against the sun will allow you to focus completely on the game without being stressed. It may also be useful to bring a bottle of suncream to protect your skin against the harmful rays of sun.

To conclude, If you are supporting your favourite football team away from home, there are multiple ways to create the ultimate Tottenham fan’s experience. From purchasing a portable battery pack and a guide to football stadiums to bringing snacks on your journey, there are a myriad of ways you can prepare for a football away day. Remember that the most important thing to do when visiting a Spurs away game is to have a great memorable time in an exciting new venue.
