Marc Davis, who joined Mitchell College as assistant coach of the men's soccer program in 2015, is one of the most highly recognized coaches within the region.

Originally from Southampton, England, he made the move to America in 2008. In his time in England Davis worked for Southampton Football Club (of the English Premier League) in their Academy program, and was charged with developing players to compete at the professional level.

In his time in America, Davis has assisted the Montville High School boy's program since 2010. He has helped the Indians achieve three Eastern Connecticut Conference (ECC) Division 'M' titles, an ECC Tournament championship and a Connecticut State Championship, working with three All-American players. Davis is one of the longest serving coaches of the premier level with the Southeast Soccer Club, working with multiple youth teams since 2008.

Davis holds certifications from England, most notably the UEFA B License, and has recently started the educational pathway in the United States, with the D License from the United States Soccer Federation (USSF). Furthermore, he holds GK certifications from both the English Football Association and National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA).

Davis received a bachelor's degree in sports studies from the University of Southampton in 2005. In his playing days he competed on the Hampshire County Schools Representative team from 16 years of age to 18 and then played semi-professionally for Eastleigh FC.

"Coach Davis believes in the importance of hard work and is fully committed to the development of the players within this program," said head coach Damian Houlden. "He has a wealth of knowledge and is cognizant of what is needed to play at the next level. We are very fortunate to have him as part of this program."
