Joshua Woodard was named head coach of the Chaminade University men's soccer team in February 2020, the ninth head coach in program history.

Although the Silverswords had their share of struggles in his third season in 2024, the team was competitive, forcing three draws including one against Pacific West Conference newcomer Vanguard which finished the season fourth in the conference standings. They also defeated Dominican, which was picked to finish fourth in the preseason poll, for the first time since 2014.

The Silverswords was competitive throughout the 2023 season with three ties including one against Dominican which finished in the upper-half of the Pacific West Conference standings.

An O‘ahu native, Woodward spent two years as an assistant coach at his alma mater, the University of Hawai‘i Hilo, for both the men and women in 2017 before moving exclusively to the women’s squad in 2018. With head coach Gene Okamura, the Vulcans’ women compiled a 17-13-2 record including a 10-4-1 mark in 2018 to help them to a runner-up finish in the Pacific West Conference standings.
 
Woodard was also a head coach on the prep level, taking Kamehameha-Hawai‘i to consecutive BIIF titles in 2018 and ’19, reaching the HHSAA Division II championship game both years. He also guided the Warriors to a fifth-place state finish in 2020. While at both UH Hilo and Kamehameha, Woodard was the Assistant Director of Coaching with the Hawai‘i Rush Soccer Club in Hilo for nearly eight years. Most recently, he was the head coach for the Hawai‘i Rush 06B squad in 2020 through 2021.
 
Woodard played his high school soccer at Waianae High School, where he was a three-time All-OIA First Team selection.
