I moved across the world to come to the US and play for Kevin Sherry, only to be deceived, belittled, and mocked. Kevin Sherry cares for no one but himself! If you’re having a difficult time deciding whether or not to play for him, take it from me—someone who didn’t last a single semester under him—do not do it. He had a team of 30+ lads, and more than half the team quit, found another school, or went back home. I highly suggest you do your research, contact his former players, and SPEAK TO THEM. I’m almost 100% positive every single one will say the same thing. He genuinely does not care about you. He spent most of the season away back home (in a completely different state) while leaving two teams to the assistant coaches. I genuinely have no idea how they’ve put up with him. He will break you down and speak ill of you to others. He will call you stupid, an idiot, or simply say you are rubbish. He will not help you find a school as he hasn’t helped a single person from the women’s or men’s team find one, so his “background” doesn’t matter. Playing under Kevin Sherry will get you nowhere.

He doesn't coach. He doesn't care about his players. He leaves all responsibility to his assistant coaches. Sometimes he leaves without informing the team or even giving a reason. He missed several practices. Sometimes I felt that he didn't even care about the women's team. During our biggest regular season game of the year against Seminole State, he decided to stay back and run the men's team through a practice. He sent his assistants to coach the game instead. He could have done the practice with the men's team that morning and then come to the game and actually completed his responsibility as a coach. This is ridiculous! What kind of a coach, abandons his own team?! He's so impressed with himself. I am not impressed at all. He does not lead. He encourages in-fighting and it shows on the field, especially as the season went on. We had so much talent, and we played our best soccer in the middle of the season, not at the end. He dismissed us, and I don't understand it. We had so much talent. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone. If you have another offer, take it.

Insanely manipulative. Emotionally abusive. So insanely terrible. I would not recommend him to my worst enemy. DO NOT LET HIS BUBBLY/NICE RECRUITMENT FOOL YOU. the moment you get there it's a flip of a switch.

Absolutely horrible coach. Brags more about his career than actually coach. He makes it a goal to publicly humiliate his players. He is the most negative coach and brings down the whole team.

my time under coach sherry was short, and there’s a very good reason for that. from my first time meeting him to my final session under him, sherry showed no matter what he did not care about his players or results, but instead belittling them and leaving his players to his assistants whilst he hid in louisiana until matchday. before the guys had a season defining match in which they must win, sherry told the guys there is no way they leave the pitch having won the game, which left even his captain, the nicest kid you could meet, in shock but also infuriated. if you ever had a concern, query, or just even wanted to have a conversation with your manager, trying to contact sherry was like attempting to platt fog. instead of trying to help us improve or even become stronger as a group, sherry would instead compare us to higher level teams he played for whenever we made a mistake like a toxic ex. being able to have some words with new recruits, i very honestly told them the college is friendly, even the assistants will be able to try and point you in the right direction, but the coach unfortunately will do nothing but waste your time.

I am so glad I played for Coach Sherry. He is kind. Coach Sherry is always there for us giving advice and making us better players, students and human beings. Coach Sherry acts as a mentor ro the assistant coaches and gives them a lot of responsibility to help them in their development. This is so refreshing when you think most coaches act as if it is all about them. I have learned so much from Coach Sherry which has helped me to continue my playing career to a higher level, thanks to him. Being coached by Coach Sherry has been a great joy in my life.

I loved my time with coach Sherry - he has so much experience and helped me improve greatly. I loved the way he stood up to the 'toxic' player sin the group who complained constantly about everything, just because they were not getting the playing minutes they thought they should be receiving. Coach Sherry was fair, honest and held players accountable, whilst giving everyone an opportunity to learn and develop. More coaches should stand up to bully and toxic players in the team like Coach Sherry does.

The most unprofessional coach I've ever had. He does not communicate with players or assistant coach's. When you ask questions on improving or game play he says he can't answer them. If you don't make a good first impression Goodluck on seeing the field. Leaves every weekend without a heads up very last minute practices. No game plans will tell the team that they are going to loose at half time. Overall not a good coach

This man is one of the worst people I’ve ever known. He called girls fat, useless, slow, and just in general other awful comments. He cultivated an environment where he constantly pitted other girls against each other and never encouraged anyone. He actually said he didn’t like any of us besides one girl. This man is emotionally and verbally abusive. I had to quit my dream of playing college soccer due to how badly he affected my mental health. I truly hope he has changed, but I doubt it. Please never play for him.

Outstanding person and coach. Has immense knowledge and understanding of the game. The players at Grambling University appreciated his efforts both on and off the field. As an assistant he provided the program that extra edge that allowed us to reach back to back finals. His attention to detail is next to none. He has an excellent demeanor with the players and coaching staff. His contributions were outstanding to the program.

Hindered ability to grow as a team and player, had to do this independently or with a few other motivated players outside of practice. Not pleasant to be around, constantly distanced himself from players and team activities. Not any positive or constructive criticism given, just all negative, and elitist. Unfortunately had a poor experience despite having a lot of playing time. Other coaching staff were amazing and too bad they also left the program. They inspired and shared the true love of the game while also creating lifelong friendships/mentorships with other players

I am so grateful to Coach Sherry. I was a freshman at LA tech before Coach Sherry arrived. We lost almost every game and the culture was so toxic but Coach Sherry arrived and changed everything. We began winning and we all flourished under his positive and knowledgeable coaching. He was the best thing that could have happened to me and the program. His influence was huge.
