Andrew Olivieri (born March 27, 1981) is the head coach of FC Lanaudière. A retired Canadian soccer player who played professionally as a goalkeeper for the Montreal Impact and for Canada internationally at many levels. He has since become a full-time coach and has served on various technical staffs on a Provincial, National and International level in his native country.
Olivieri began playing amateur soccer with his home town of Montreal-North from 1987 to 1995. At which point he took his talent to Jean-Talon Rosemont in the Ligue de Soccer Elite Quebec, where he played from 1995 to 1999. During that period, he was a member of the Quebec teams. During his time with Jean-Talon Rosemont he was named into the LSEQ all-star team from 1996 to 1999 and was named the goalkeeper of the year in 1996 and 1998. He won numerous Canadian championships with the Quebec teams and conceded only 2 goals in five consecutive years of national championships from 1995 to 1999.
From 1999 he went on to play college soccer with Southern Connecticut State University, where he was a four-year starter and named into the conference and region all-star teams each year. His freshman year was the most memorable as he led SCSU to an NCAA National Championship and only the second ever perfect season recorded in NCAA history with a 20-0-0 record. To go with their 20 wins, Olivieri recorded 15 shutouts and led the nation with the best goals against average (0.25). His four-year total was an impressive 45 shut-outs in 73 games.
Between 2001 until 2003 he played for the Vermont Voltage of the PDL, with Vermont he won the PDL New England conference in 2002 and 2003.
In 2003, he was the first overall draft pick of the Montreal Impact of the USL A-League. With the Impact he won the regular-season title from 2003 to 2005, and the League Championship in 2004. He also won the Voyageurs Cup from 2003 to 2005. Throughout his time with Montreal he mostly played as a back-up for Greg Sutton, which led him to sign with the Laval Dynamites of the Canadian Soccer League. He featured in the postseason match against Toronto Croatia, where Laval were eliminated from the competition by a score of 1-0.
