Rhys Thomas Returns to LINX Camps as Soccer/IT Camps Coordinator
Rhys Thomas brings soccer and IT expertise back to LINX Camps for a second summer, as Soccer and IT Camps Coordinator for 2018.

WELLESLEY, MA – April 13th – Rhys Thomas brings soccer and IT expertise along with his much loved British accent and fun loving attitude back to LINX Camps for a second summer, as Soccer and IT Camps Coordinator for 2018. Coming from the UK, Thomas continues to bring cultural diversity and leadership to the Wellesley campus at Dana Hall.
Thomas is a 2017 graduate of The University of Sheffield (South Yorkshire, England) with a BA in Business Management with Employment Experience. He’s been a passionate soccer player since the age of 6 (playing every chance he gets), led training sessions, ran competitions at school, and was the captain of his team for many years. During the non-summer months, Thomas worked as a Project Manager in a team of web designers and developers, fine-tuning his leadership skills. Teamwork is the key to his success both in and out of work, and a vital part of working at LINX.
Thomas’ proven ability to engage the kids in fun, learning, and all-around good sportsmanship is complemented by his personal mantra, “giving your all is far more important than winning.” Like his role model Maya Yoshida, a Southampton soccer player, you can count on Thomas to give his best and set an example. “So many soccer players these days have a big ego and think they’re bigger than the team, but Maya just keeps his head down, works hard for the team and always steps in when he’s needed. He’s a prime example of what all professional sports players should strive to be like, and I always try my best to work and give my all for my team in the same way.” Thomas looks forward to sharing his passion for soccer and encouraging campers to love the game as much as he does.
