Head Coach Matt Kelly

Coach Matt Kelly has coached soccer for the last 9 years. Coach Kelly began with Carolina University from 2014-2021 as the assistant men’s coach.  Coach Kelly helped to build their program from his insight as a player and leader. Since 2021 Coach Kelly has been the head boys soccer coach at Carter G Woodson and the head mens club soccer coach at High Point University. Coach Kelly coached 5 All Conference players at Carter G Woodson and finished as runner up’s in the state finals in 2022.

Coach Kelly’s tenacity and commitment was built at his Alma Matter, Southern Wesleyan University. Coach Kelly was a walk on for their soccer team so he knows the work ethic that’s needed to be a success and he has earned a bachelor degree in Sports Management so he knows how that work ethic pays off, but more importanty he knows that it’s only the strenght given from God that builds the work ethic of any person.

Coach Kelly resides in Thomasville, NC with his wife Angela and their three boys, Samuel, Elijah, and Jonathan, and one soon to be daughter Hannah.
