SoccerOP Internship Program

About SoccerOP

SoccerOP started in September 2003 when Scott Wollaston and Chad Heinicke were contracted by the City of Greensboro to run soccer operations at the Greensboro Sportsplex. Their goal was to improve the operations of the existing indoor soccer league and create new soccer opportunities for kids and adults in the local soccer community.

In just 4 years, SoccerOP has grown into one of the premier training programs in the Piedmont Triad offering programs for children 18 months old through adults. And, the program has expanded into High Point and now, Winston-Salem.

Mission Statement

SoccerOP’s mission is to provide the best supplemental soccer training experience in the Piedmont Triad.

Internship Program

SoccerOP is dedicated to the education, training and experience of each intern involved in our program.  Interns will be assigned programs and tasks based on hours committed per week and time of year in which they will be working with SoccerOP.  There is no minimum commitment in number of weeks or hours a week.  All interns are expected to send a resume and be available for interview upon showing interest in working with SoccerOP.  All internships are unpaid.  SoccerOP will work with all schools to help students receive credit for their work. You do not have to be receiving credit to be an intern with SoccerOP.
