ES Volleyball: Empowering Communities Through Sport
When ES was founded in 1994, it was an adventure undertaken by a group of entrepreneur engineers. In 2000, significant steps were taken to institutionalize the company’s standards and principles through the life views and approaches of the founders Sırma Üç and Ercan Üç as well as the core crew.
It was during those years that ES Limited, turned from a center providing profits to the shareholders, to an organization living with its staff, developing every single day, bringing its dynamic and young family of workers together under its roof.
A new project came to life in 2004. A sports club was founded with the sponsorship of ES.
Success Story
The passion of its founders for volleyball, children and education provided hundreds of young people the opportunity to practice sports as part of this sports club.
Just like ES Limited, Es Volleyball earned the reputation of an idealistic and ambitious organization, which incorporates different points of view, unusual approaches, and grand intentions.
In 2022 this sports club includes almost 200 licensed volleyball players aged 8-20, and both boys and girls teams competing in mini, youth, junior and senior categories. ES Volleyball is totally a youth setup club in that it offers projects for children and youth. It has realized many projects to train volleyball players, coaches, and sport managers.
Supporting Inclusion: ES & Lionbridge Translate for Special Olympics
We are proud to announce our partnership for the Turkish translation of the Special Olympics website in collaboration with Lionbridge, as a continuation of our support for sports and sportsmen since 2004, the year ES Sports Club was founded.
As of 2011, ES family feels proud of their dedicated efforts and motivation in supporting the Special Olympics by ensuring all Turkish content on the Special Olympics website as well as joining the games in July 2011 with athletes from ES Sports Club.
Our co-owner Mr. Ercan Uc said: “Everyone’s life changed with words. This time we hope those to be our ‘translated words’ and so our motto was “Let everyone share the joy of sports” in this donation. “However, I should say it means much more than a donation for us, we consider this support as a corporate responsibility project. We are thankful to all the supporters and Lionbridge Technologies”.
ES Volleyball will give a boost with 4 athletes. These athletes who will join in “2011 World Summer Games Unified” volleyball team are going to take part in the struggle together with 6 disabled athletes.
