ESF PLAY LABS: Learn More, Play More…Be More AND Have Fun Doing It!

Campers will unleash their inner talents at ESF’s NEW Play Lab concept! Play Lab will provide a structure that enhances our 5 Pillars for Success:

• Have Fun
• Improve Your Technique
• Be More Tactically Aware
• Improve Your Fitness
• Improve Your “Muscles of Character” through our innovative 8 ESF Virtues.

A portion of each day will be dedicated to building on a theme that will ensure that your child is being provided with an exciting combination of both sport and life skills, as it helps prepare them on and off the playing field. ESF Play Lab takes pride in supporting our campers as they develop as players and people. Our staff will take as much time to listen as it will to coach. It is the desire of every staff member in our Play Lab to teach each sport the same way they were taught to us. With RESPECT!

Master Coach & Guest Speaker: Rick Jacobs

Rick Jacobs has coached and mentored hundreds of young men over the past 40 years by providing a foundation that has been rooted in the core belief, that in order to become a great athlete you need to dedicate yourself to being a great person first.  Rick has delivered his messaging by helping athletes develop their own Championship Culture and he believes that this is where true greatness can be sustained; in both sport and life.

The highlight of Rick’s coaching career was his unprecedented 25 year run as the Head Boys Soccer Coach, at St. Benedict’s Prep., in Newark, NJ.  His Championship Culture resulted in 23 Prep or Parochial State Championships, Six #1 Ranked High School Teams in America, crowning them as “Mythical” National Champions, a 131 game unbeaten streak and a final record of 519 Wins – 27 Losses – 17 Ties. United Soccer Coaches (formerly the National Soccer Coaches Association of America) still recognizes him as the coach with the all-time highest winning percentage for boys’ soccer, at a staggering 94%.

He has coached World Cup and Olympic team members and captains, Pan American team members, as well US National Team members from ages U-15 – to full Men’s National team status. His players have gone on to play in the world’s most competitive leagues; including the English Premier League, German Bundesliga, Scottish Premier League as well as Major League Soccer (MLS).
