New Boys Assistant Technical Director

PictureDavid Moore
A big welcome to David Moore, who rejoins the Vinland Valley coaching staff after many years. Coach Moore (who holds a USSF D License) grew up playing soccer on the east coast. As a youth he moved to KC and played for the very well know Carlos Rojas, former Colombian pro, who emigrated to the US. At that time there were no soccer pitches in JoCo so his team practiced without goals on baseball fields and played their matches at Swope Park. Carlos became Coach Moore's mentor teaching him and his teammates that good sportsmanship and respect for other's comes before all else. Coach Moore has had the privilege to play on sides with many good players including former European pros, athletes from all over the world and fellow coaches Matthew McCune and Ivan Huntoon. He has coached at many levels including rec, club, premier, high school and college with Coach McCune and not to mention numerous camps. Coach Moore is a father of three boys, two of which were captains of the Baldwin High School soccer team and all three are former Vinland Valley players.

What is Vinland Valley Soccer?

   Players that attend Vinland Valley Soccer Association work on individual skills at a young age. The repetition of skill through games and activities during training help develop a confidence in the player.
   Players also enjoy the team atmosphere and team bonding activities. When you sign up to play for VVSA, not only are you going to improve, but you are going to be part of a family and truly enjoy it!
   There are four components to the Vinland Valley Soccer Association, the Recreational League, the Academy (a step above Recreational), the FC Academics (tournament teams) and the Skills Club.
