San Francisco Vikings Soccer Club

Team:  SFVSC Courage

 

Jeff Wilson began his coaching career as an assistant men's coach at San Francisco State University following the completion of his playing career for the Gators in 1994. After obtaining his California Teaching Credential from San Jose State University, Wilson was hired as a full time teacher/counselor and assistant soccer coach at Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory in 1998. Since becoming the varsity coach in 2000, the Figthin' Irish have continued to improve each year. As a testament to the growth of the program, Wilson is the only coach in the school’s history to ever lead a SHCP soccer team into the CCS championships. His 2002-2003 team culminated their season with the first invite, the 2009-2010 team finished as the Division III Runners-Up, and the 2010-2011 team reached the Division III semi-finals.

 

In addition to coaching at SHCP, Jeff is the current Director of Coaching for the San Francisco Vikings Soccer Club, head coach for the SFVSC Courage U16 girls travel team, a California Youth Soccer Association Coaching Instructor, and an Olympic Development Program (ODP) Cal North State team Head Boy's Coach.
