Coaching Staff

Our goal is to help develop boys and girls to become quality soccer players and understand the fundamentals of the game. More importantly, we try to promote values like leadership, teamwork, perseverance, friendship and respect in hopes that we can aide our young boys and girls to become quality young men and women. We understand that athleticism and skill are important in team sports and we strive for these qualities, but they are only a small part of the bigger picture of youth soccer. Please come see what we are all about! Are you interested in coaching at Wilmington United? Please send us your coaching resume with references to admin@wilmingtonunited.com
