Jason Jordan (soccer)

Born in Richmond, British Columbia, Jordan began playing college soccer at Langara College in 1998 and 1999. He signed with the Vancouver 86ers in 1997.

In June 2002, he turned down a contract offer from the Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer in favour of remaining with the Whitecaps.

In the 2005 season he enjoyed a career year with the Whitecaps being named 2005 USL First Division MVP and lead the league with 17 goals. Jordan as well was named Whitecaps Player of the Year, and was presented with the "Domenic Mobilio Golden Boot", and shared the Supporter's MVP award with goalkeeper Mike Franks.

Unfortunately, he suffered numerous injuries in 2006 that restricted him to playing only six games in the regular season and two games in the playoffs. Despite limited action, he tallied two assists and fired six shots in his regular season appearances as the Whitecaps won the USL First Division Championship, beating the Rochester Raging Rhinos 3–0.

On December 19, 2008, Jordan was released from the Vancouver Whitecaps[1] and retired few days later.

Jordan is also a former member of the Canadian Under-20 and Under-23 national teams.

Jordan is currently involved with the Vancouver Selects youth soccer club, coaching their U18 team as well as overseeing the rest of the club, from U14 to U18. He led the Crofton House Varsity soccer team to victory at the ISA's on Vancouver Island and works as U-16 Boys coach for Coastal WFC during the 2009 season. They continue to improve with his guidance and support.
