Men's Soccer Assistant Coach - Loyola University Maryland Jamie Darvill

Head coach Steve Nichols announced the elevation of Jamie Darvill to an assistant coach for the men's soccer program in April, 2020. One of the top offensive performers in Loyola history, Darvill helped the Greyhounds advance to the NCAA tournament in each of his final three seasons as a student-athlete from 2007-09. He spent the 2019 season as the program’s Director of Soccer Operations while also working as the Director of Player Development for Liverpool FC’s International Academy.

“Jamie is one of the best to ever play for Loyola, and he’s going to do an incredible job for us,” Nichols said. “His experience working with some of the Premier League’s top clubs speaks for itself, and it says a lot about both him and our program that he wants to take on this new role while continuing in his position at Liverpool. He has supported my direction for the program since day one, and I’m excited to see what we can continue to accomplish together.”

In his position with Liverpool, Darvill oversees scouting, player and coaching development initiatives. He manages a staff of over 50 people to ensure the effective and authentic delivery of the LFC development methodology in the United States. Prior to joining Liverpool, Darvill was a Development Academy Coach for Chelsea FC, designing and delivering training sessions to develop some of the world’s top young players.

A four-year starter, Darvill totaled 99 points (36 G, 27 A) across 73 appearances as a player for the Greyhounds. He ranks tied for ninth all-time at Loyola in points, 12th in goals and sixth in assists. Darvill was named MAAC Offensive Player of the Year in both 2008 and 2009, he was a third team Top Drawer Soccer All-America selection in 2008 and he was recognized on the MAC Hermann Trophy Watch List prior to the start of his senior season.

Darvill was Loyola’s leading scorer during a 2008 campaign which saw the Greyhounds ranked as high as No. 6 nationally during an undefeated, 17-0 regular season. He tallied 14 goals and 11 assists that fall, and added a team-high 29 points (10 G, 9 A) while leading Loyola to its 12th MAAC championship as a senior in 2009. Darvill was the first men’s soccer player in MAAC history to receive back-to-back Offensive Player of the Year accolades.

“I would like to thank Steve Nichols, Donna Woodruff and Bill Wnek for the faith they showed in me throughout this process,” Darville said. “I hope to repay them through my tireless dedication to assisting Steve as he guides our program towards its goal of winning championships and returning to the NCAA tournament. I look forward to engaging with our staff, players and alumni over the coming years to find ways to build on our program’s already proud tradition and capitalize on our exciting potential.”

After graduation, Darvill had a seven-year professional playing career with teams in both the United States and Europe. He finished his career with the Baltimore Blast and was part of that squad’s 2013 MISL Championship team. Darvill has also represented Great Britain on the international level at a U23 event in Sweden.

Darvill graduated from Loyola in December, 2009 with a bachelor’s degree in communications.
