Hollins University

Co-Head Coach Landon Moore

Landon Moore joined Coach O’Keeffe when she was named head coach in 2007. Moore graduated from Hampden-Sydney College, which he refers to as "a male version of Hollins." He contributed to one of the best four-year periods in H-SC’s soccer history, from 1999 to 2002, winning 49 games during that span. Moore was named to the All-ODAC Academic Team and was selected to participate in the college’s prestigious Society of '93 leadership program.

Moore has been involved with coaching soccer at all levels, beginning at Fuqua School in Farmville, Virginia, during his senior year of college. He has been a head coach in the Virginia Olympic Development Program, with Roanoke Star Soccer Club, and with Valley AFC Arsenal. He was director of Roanoke Star Academy during 2007-08. Moore holds licenses from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America and the United States Soccer Federation, the highest of which is the NSCAA Advanced National Diploma.

Moore engineered the growth of the soccer program at William Fleming High School. He transformed the program from one that had not won a single game in a five-year span into a program that won ten games and reached the quarterfinals of regional playoffs two years later. Under his leadership, the soccer program has grown from one coed team to four teams (JV and varsity teams for girls and boys). Moore credits the growth of soccer at the Roanoke City high school to diversity—he has coached players from more than 35 countries at Fleming.

Through his involvement with the soccer program at William Fleming, Moore formed the Star City Soccer Foundation in 2009. SCSF is a nonprofit organization that provides refugees and immigrants with opportunities in education, leadership, and assimilation. After-school programs, educational summer camps, and involvement with local soccer organizations are all key components to the SCSF mission.

Moore is the director of the Carrie O’Keeffe Championship Soccer Camp, which got its start in summer 2010. The camp is named for O’Keeffe’s championship experiences at the youth, collegiate, and professional levels. COCSC features day camps for young local players and residential camps for players who are serious about improving their game.
