Located at the stunning Reignwood Park, the home of KIS International School, Icons Series, known for bringing the world’s biggest sporting icons to the golf course, will set the scene for 24 of the most recognisable footballers on the planet to battle it out as Team England and Team World for the 2025 Icons Trophy.
