GET TO KNOW FRANK
First and foremost, Frank is a loving father to five amazing kids, as well as a husband, son, brother, and friend. Soccer has always been central to Frank’s life. A former Division I player at Columbia University, he traveled internationally to play in matches, coached all five of his kids, and still plays pickup whenever he can. Two of his sons also went on to play college soccer. Beyond the pitch, Frank stays active playing tennis, golf, pickleball, skiing, and whatever new interest his kids bring home — from Fortnite and Taylor Swift to Champions League soccer. As a family, the Schnurs love skiing, board games, role-playing games, video games, and the theater — with Les Misérables holding a special place in Frank’s heart after his oldest son starred as Jean Valjean in high school.
