His coaching philosophy and techniques have propelled multiple players to higher levels of competition, including NCAA Div 1 soccer and international military sports events.

Most recently, Errol has demonstrated his coaching excellence in the First Flight League and the UPSL, where he led his team to a semi-final appearance in their inaugural season. His modern coaching approach, combined with his experience and commitment to the sport, aligns perfectly with Fayetteville Fury’s mission to develop soccer talent and promote the game.

With Errol at the helm, the Fayetteville Fury Soccer Club looks forward to fostering a culture of excellence, inclusivity, and success.
