HEAD COACH & DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR
HEAD COACH & DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR
Football is a huge part of my life. It has been for 10 years, and now the Steelers are too. Even the hard, tough football days, they make me so happy, because pure determination and hard work gets us to the point of winning. We've created a team of total ballers, with pure excitement and with fire in our hearts. Ben, a current Linebacker for Darlington Steam, joined the Steelers in 2017 and was appointed as Head Coach in 2018; with playing experience at both University and Britball Level, Ben has proudly coached the Women's game for both Team GB and Diamond series.
