With a playing career that included stints with West Virginia Wesleyan College, Dallas Sidekicks, Charleston Battery, and other professional clubs, Colin knows firsthand what it takes to compete at the highest level. But his impact on the game extends far beyond his playing days. As Vice President of Soccer Operations and Director of Coaching at BVB International Academy America, he’s dedicated to developing the next generation of elite athletes.
Holding a USSF A-License, Colin has spent decades coaching and leading high-performance teams, including top youth programs in Girls Academy, Pre-GA, and elite-level training. His experience spans major clubs like Liverpool IA America and CFJ LA, where he’s helped shape countless players' technical skills, mental resilience, and overall game intelligence.
In this conversation, Colin shares insights on coaching philosophy, player development, and the mental toughness required to excel in competitive soccer. Whether you’re a player, coach, or parent looking to understand the journey to high performance, this episode is packed with invaluable lessons.
