In a significant development for soccer enthusiasts in the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI), Vin Blaine, the former head coach of the Reggae Girlz, has accepted the position of Director of Football for the U.S. Virgin Islands Soccer Federation. Blaine, who previously served as the Director of Football for the USVI, returns to guide and elevate the football landscape in the region. Vin Blaine’s journey has been marked by both triumphs and challenges. Before his tenure as the head coach for the Jamaica Senior Women’s National Team in 2021, Blaine held the same Director of Football role for the U.S. Virgin Islands. His return to this pivotal position signifies a commitment to the growth and development of football in the region.

Blaine’s coaching career took an unexpected turn during his time with the Reggae Girlz. In 2021, he assumed the mantle of head coach for the Jamaica Senior Women’s National Team, only to face a tumultuous departure a year later. The catalyst for his resignation came after several members of the squad expressed their lack of confidence in him, leading to a poignant letter and subsequent departure from the team. Now, with a fresh opportunity to make a lasting impact, Blaine is eager to contribute his expertise to the U.S. Virgin Islands Soccer Federation. As the newly appointed Director of Football, he aims to implement strategies that will enhance the performance and potential of local players while fostering a positive and united football community.
