Club career


Collins started his career with Lion Heart. In 2015, he moved to Utulei Youth. With this club he won the 2015 FFAS Senior League which meant that they qualified for the 2016 OFC Champions League preliminary stage. During this preliminary round Collins played all 3 games. He also scored 1 goal, against Kiwi from Samoa.


International career



U17


In 2013 Collins was called up to play with the American Samoa national under-17 football team in the 2013 OFC U-17 Championship preliminary round. He played all 3 matches during this competition. They eventually reached a second spot, before Samoa and Tonga. Although this was a very good result for American Samoa they failed to qualify for the main stage.


U20


In 2014 Collins, just 16 years old, joined the U20's for the 2014 OFC U-20 Championship in Fiji. Collins played all five matches including games against Pacific giants like Vanuatu and New Caledonia. 4 of those 5 matches went for a loss but against Papua New Guinea they played 1–1. A historical draw for American Samoa. In 2016, he was named captain of the U20's for the 2016 OFC U-20 Championship preliminary round in Tonga. This ended as a disappointment for Collins and his teammates as they got only 1 point out of 3 games.


National team


Collins made his debut for the American Samoa national football team in a friendly match against Fiji on August 27, 2015, which ended in 6–0 loss. Collins played his second game in a 3–2 loss against Samoa during the First Qualification Round for the 2018 World Cup.
