NEW SIGNING: LIAM COLLINS
BOHFS are excited to announce the signing of Liam Collins, a talented midfielder with a wealth of experience both domestically and internationally.
Born and raised in Skibbereen, Ireland, Collins made a name for himself on the soccer field playing all over Ireland and captaining the Ireland CFAI National team before making the jump to the United States on a soccer scholarship. Liam had a very impressive career at the University of Memphis. Twice named to the Herman Trophy Watchlist and earning multiple 1st-Team All-Region and All-Conference honors, Liam cemented himself as one of the top players in college soccer. He also set a school record for all-time assists, showcasing his vision and ability to create opportunities for his teammates.
Collins has played for various clubs around the world, including stints with Hamilton FC, KW United FC, Toronto Lynx, Inter Nashville, Club Atlético Saint Louis as well as professional sides Cork FC in Ireland, DC United and Nashville FC in the MLS.
Collins was named to the National Team of the Year for the NPSL, and in 2020, he was nominated as one of the league’s Top 10 All-Time players.
I’m thrilled to be joining the BOHFS and I’m looking forward to contributing to the success of the team,” said Collins. “This is an exciting opportunity, and I can’t wait to bring my experience to help the team achieve its goals this season.”
Now a high school history teacher and head coach at Holt High School in Wentzville, MO, Collins brings his deep understanding of the game and leadership experience to his new role with the BOHFS. The club is excited to have him join the roster and contribute both on and off the field.
