 SicSociety Has joined up with some other people and organizations who are S.I.C !

Rod Underwoord is currently the Portland Timber’s U23 assistant soccer coach. Soccer has always been a gift of Rod’s, playing NCAA Division 1 soccer at Furman University, and then entering his pro career the next year playing in the 1989-1900 season with the Atlanta Attack, the NPSL reserve team. In 1990-1991, He played for the New Mexico Chiles, APSL and USISL and then moved to the New Orleans Gamblers the following year in 1992. From 1993-1994 he entered the USL playing for the New Mexico Chiles. Rod finished his last year of playing soccer at the professional level for the Albuquerque Geckos in the A-league.

His coaching career began in 1994, where he was the head coach for the USL New Mexico Chilies. He was coach in New Mexico until 1997, where the 1997-1998 season he became head coach of the Albuquerque Geckos. Then in 1999, he was moved to South Carolina to be head coach of the USL South Carolina Shamrocks.

Rod moved and became first head coach of the Portland Timbers USL team from 2007-2009. With this team, he managed a playing budget of $400,000 ($500,000 2nd year) and was responsible of holding daily coaching sessions with the first team.

In 2009, he became the head coach for the USL Division 1 Cleveland City Stars and was responsible for scheduling games, planned and ran first team training sessions and match preparation, and was responsible for recruiting first team training sessions and match preparation. In 2010, he became the Northeast Stars head coach in Trinidad and Tobago in the TT Pro League.

As much as soccer is Rod Underwood’s profession, it is not his main passion. Rod is very passionate for sharing the message of Jesus all around the world through the life of soccer and through his travels with being a professional. He believes that it is our calling as Christians to spread the Gospel to non-believers, awakening believers and shining light into the darkness of the world.

Rod helps with the blog feed sharing his travels and scripture. He also represents S.I.C Witness bands as he coaches soccer and during travels. Check him out!

We are very proud to have partnered with Rod, and are very blessed to say , at the level he is at professionally in the world of soccer, through the many temptations to fade away, he is S.I.C!

When thinking about music and artists, the conclusions we draw seem simple and we don’t often wander very far down the path to discovery by just scratching the surface. Looking at the life and artistry of Jordan Riley offers a fresh perspective not often seen in today’s world; not because he is better or greater than his peers, but because his goal and calling offers us more than just music.

Jordan’s music offers help and hope. He shares, “My music talks about personal and sometimes private issues that most people would rather not share, but in doing so they not only see that its ok to talk about their issues, but that you can make it through things no matter how hard they may seem.” These “personal issues” are shared in the song, “Catch Me.” Jordan shares, “’Catch Me’ is a snapshot into a piece of my past. I guess you could say that ‘Catch Me’ was me crying out for acceptance which I felt that I didn’t have much of growing up. Many times when we go through rough times and we fall hard in life people seem to be far away from you and you feel like you are going through it alone. ‘Catch Me’ deals with the turmoil people feel in their heart when they are caught up in life’s crazy times.”

Whether he is singing at a concert, speaking to thousands or simply sharing with someone over a cup of coffee, Jordan Riley is someone whose life is about more than just music; he is someone who cares and sincerely wants to make a lasting difference in this world.

Jordan Riley is such a blessing to SicSociety and the family by serving the body of Christ! He distributes Sic bracelets at his concerts and reaches out to those through love and serves for a bigger purpose.
