History

ACAMP was formed in 2008 by Richard Briant, who had a vision of forming a superior staff of coaches to help kids achieve success through sports, enrichment and activities. He had a vision of coaching youths as a profession and realized there was a lack of quality sports camps and after school programs in the Los Angeles area. Welcome ACAMP!

"Richard enhances the mind and spirit of being a young athlete and inspires each child to enjoy life through sports and activities."

Coach Richard Briant has a passion for helping youths live a fun, active and healthy lifestyle through sports and activities.  Richard’s 10 years of coaching experience inspires kids to enjoy sports and improve performance through physical and mental conditioning.  He teaches teamwork, motivation, determination and self-esteem which prepare kids to be successful in sports and life.  

Coach Richard developed a vision after he constantly saw kids struggling or lacking confidence while playing sports.   He realizes kids are sometimes mentally fragile and can be discouraged from playing sports without proper coaching.  Richard recognizes each talented child is unique and may need to be coached differently to have fun and maximize their full potential.

Coach Richard holds a Bachelor’s in Communications from Oswego State and completed MBA classes at Lemoyne College and Woodbury University.  He is a certified personal trainer and nutritionist and has 5 years of private coaching (one on one) and training experience.  Coach Richard played college baseball and has extensive knowledge on all sports A.C.A.M.P. offers through playing, coaching and studying over the years.  He has worked at Fox Sports for 11 years.
