Darren Collins

Head Coach

Girls Varsity Soccer

Background 

I was born in Cork, Ireland and came to the US in 2019 to play soccer at Davenport University. I have been involved in soccer my entire life and decided to peruse a career in the development of young soccer players. I was involved in a very successful college program which won a League title, been in multiple finals and have went to the national tournament. Using my experience and education I want to empower young people to play at their best potential. 

I am excited to lead this program to success and creating a platform for the girls to excel through my knowledge and experience on the field overall training performance for. I have a passion for coaching.
