Hello Ezra, Steph and Chrissy,
I have literally just arrived home after our last practice here in Tofino. I just had to let you know how impressed I was with the week-long program. While we did have interesting weather, the kids enjoyed every minute of each day.
I've heard about Ezra's Soccer over the years, having come from Nanaimo family full of soccer coaches, referees and players. This was the first camp that Jacob was able to take part in, previous summers he was in a Mini-Vike Soccer Camp in Victoria. To get such a great program here is phenomenal. Tofino is fortunate that Ezra's makes the trip each year. Sign us up for the next one!
Watching from the sidelines, I saw superb coaching (ranging from soccer skills, team building skills and just plain life skills well suited to the age and level of all the kids) and was grateful to have my son a part of such an experience. I watched the kids be inspired by the coaches (Jacob had Steph most of the week) and saw their love of soccer enriched by the many new methods and tips. She made it interesting and challenging, yes!
Your mission statement says it all; A place for every player.
Thank you. I know Jake loves playing soccer, who knows what he can accomplish with mentors like Ezra, Steph and Chrissy.
Whatever it may be, he will have the best time doing it.
Kindest regards from a proud soccer Mom.

Dear Ezra and Coaches,
I don't know if you remember a blonde haired, light blue eyed girl named Octavia (age 7), but I am a mom who wants to thank you so much. Octavia got her first goal and assist today. The look of shock and happiness that was on her face was priceless!!!!!!!
She made an absolutely perfect pass for the assist that I thought I was watching a professional game for a bit.
Thank you soooo much, all of you, for helping us build her self esteem and confidence, which is what we have trying so hard to do. She loves the game of soccer but always though she was awful at it because her team mates always yelled at her and put her down. You"re organization, gave my little girl what she needed. Thank you so much. Also, Erik, my 5 year old, has said that he doesn't want to play soccer this year, but " I still want to do Ezra's Soccer, Mommy". Who could say no to that.

Hi Ezra,
I was thinking about you, this past week and wanted to thank you. Alex and Patrick learned a great deal and also had a great time at your camp, like they did last year.
You and your associates do a phenomenal job motivating the children in a terrific, encouraging way, without being condescending.
My oldest daughter Tori also attended your camp at the end of July also, and loved it, even though her friends were unable to participate. She was on a rep soccer team this year and loves every aspect of soccer.
I also wish to add that your new associates, including Kelsey, were terrific. All three of my children were very pumped and excited, even through their bruises and aches, about the upcoming soccer season. You and your crew do an amazing job motivating them to strive and be their best at soccer, well done, and thank you.
I meant to ask you about your camps abroad around B.C. and how they went. Hope they were as successful as here, I'm certain they were.
Take care, and look forward to seeing you soon,
Michele Behie

The ESA has dramatically improved Mackenzie’s soccer skills. Your inspiration and coaching methods have given Mackenzie a whole new confidence and approach to training. She likes that the ESA is not just technical training but also tactical, physical, and psychological. These applied skills have given her a better understanding and knowledge of the game, which in turn has made her a stronger player. From the ESA Mackenzie has learned respect and discipline that she applies on and off the field. We also appreciate the time you took to teach us as parents how to be supportive of training at home without coaching.
