ESA Football
'The Academy'
Evolution Sports Academy (ESA) was originally established as a football academy for children aged from 2 to 16 years old, providing a safe and professional environment for all ability levels. Our strict academy ethos emphasizes possession-based football and fluid expression from players to showcase their talents. Join ESA and watch your child thrive in their football skills and personal growth.
1) At ESA, we want to support our players in becoming well-rounded individuals, on and off the pitch. We foster hard work in all stages of being, from the school classroom to the football pitch. We believe hard work at school and at home translates to hard work on the pitch.
2) Football is a physically demanding sport, and therefore being conscious of health, nutrition, and wellness is vital. The ESA Team is trained to support our players in their journey of health and wellness.
3) A champion mentality is not always about trophies won. Trust, hard work, and belief are paramount. Champions are made in their journey and in the way they overcome adversity throughout the season. At ESA, we teach our players the value of continuous learning, improvement, and the acceptance of the highs and lows of sport.
4) At ESA, we are a team. Respect and support towards our team players and coaches are vital for success.
5) Football at its core is enjoyment. At ESA, having fun is a core value of the academy and our players success. We play the game with a smile and a positive attitude.
