Brad Estes - President, Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC

Brad Estes is the new President of Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC, joining the reigning USL Champions about six months ago after a short stint away from the game.  He brings with him years of top level experience at the helm of perennial USL power Louisville City.  While with the Louisville side, he saw the club’s parent company Soccer Holdings Inc. construct a new soccer specific stadium, launch an academy program, and secure and build NWSL franchise Racing Louisville from the ground up. 

A well rounded athlete growing up, Estes played high school and college football, but his business acumen is what now sets him apart in the sports world. We discuss some of his wide ranging experiences prior to starting as a sports executive that have proven beneficial in building winners. 

Colorado Springs senior team is fighting for a playoff spot in the jam packed Western Conference, and recently announced new signing Kyle Vassell, who they hope will provide some extra punch in front of goal.  Already having experience with a Unified team, they are also partners in fielding a squad in the first ever Inspire Soccer League for individuals with intellectual impairment.  There are plenty of good things going on in Colorado Springs!
