Dear Sirs/Madam, To whom it may concern, Please ďŹ nd aďż˝ached/below a Football reference for Reuben Rabstein (Immanuel College). Reuben has been a Player at Maccabi London Lions for 11 years. During his period at the Club, he has also gone on to represent Team GB at the European Maccabi Games, and has recently been selected to again represent Team GB at the World Maccabiah Games in the under 18 squad in Israel. I am happy to have any further discussions by telephone or email, my contact details are as follows: Andrew@landesberg.co.uk +44 7970 880 779. Yours faithfully Andrew Landesberg Andrew Landesberg Director of Football & Chairman
Background Reuben was brought to my a�en�on during 2013 by both his specific Team manager and also the Coaching staff. He had a strong physical presence for a Player of this age, and this was an advantage that he used on the field of play, and during training. I con�nued to personally follow Reuben’s progress, and he joined the Senior squad for only training sessions in the 2014/2015 season, as he was not eligible to play senior football as he had not a�ained the qualifying age of 16 yet. In the 2015/2016 season he became a full member of the squad and played almost 70% of the season, he was part of the ART Cup winning side, and his performance in the final was a reflec�on of the progress he had made throughout the season. In July of 2015 he was part of the Team GB squad that par�cipated in the European Maccabiah Games in Berlin, where Reuben was an important member of the Team. Reuben has con�nued to be part of the 1st team squad during season 2016/2017, and has also been selected by Team GB for the World Maccabiah Games in Israel in July 2017. Football Goalkeeping is a very specialist posi�on, and to be as advanced and as confident as Reuben is, at such a young age, is excep�onal. His physical presence is an a�ribute, but he really has very good movement skills for a player of his size. He con�nues to work and focus on this area at all �mes, and this has con�nued to push him forward. His fitness levels are good, and his overall body is in good shape, but Reuben is con�nuing to work on all aspects of his fitness. There is no doubt that as he matures he will be stronger and more powerful. His handling of the ball is top class, and he is very comfortable with the ball at his feet for quick distribu�on. A�er an injury at the start of the season, Reuben is training and playing, making his 1st team debut for the season last week. He was right back to the very high levels from last season, and in fact has con�nued to improve his all round performance. He is playing at a very good level of football with a confidence and ability that is well beyond his years. Reuben is without ques�on an excep�onal player and I would not have a moments hesita�on in recommending him. Personality It is not very o�en that you come across an athlete of this age who has the ability to perform as he does on the field of play, working hard, wan�ng to be a team player and also the will to be a winner, yet at the same �me be an absolute Gentleman off the field of play. Reuben is extremely well rounded, he is very intelligent, and a very likeable young Man with a superb character. He integrates with both his own age group and also the older players that he is involved with in the senior team. I am sure Reuben will succeed in life both on and off the field of play, he really is a great human being.
