Jacob Adams

(Managing Director)

Despite his young age, Jacob has achieved an awful lot specifically within football. Playing non-league football as a goalkeeper for the likes of Springfield FC, Southend Manor and Hullbridge Sports. From here Jacob moved to Staines Town and was named captain aged just 18, putting in a string of fine performances and earning the reputation as one of the best goalkeepers at his age within the non-league circuit.

It was here that led to Peter representing Jacob as his agent with the aim of helping him fulfil his potential and break into professional football.

Fast forward 6 months and Jacob went into Premier League side Fulham FC on an initial 6 week trial which was later extended and saw him training with the first team, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Alphonse Areola, Aleksandr Mitrovic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Harrison Reed, also learning from Scott Parker and his vastly experienced management team in the process. Following interest from several football league clubs, Jacob signed a 1 year contract at Fulham in July 2021 and represented the club's U21 team.

Jacob studied Economics at the University of Surrey and these transferable skills are an invaluable asset to Elev8 from a business perspective.
