More About Coach Ben
I currently work for a local Mansfield/Arlington soccer club. Beginning in 2022, I have been coaching multiple age groups: from 3-10 years old, and trained players all the way up to 22 years old. I have taken recreational soccer players, and have developed them to compete on the academy level. For my academy players, I take them to the next level of success. I've also volunteered to coach two teams ages 7 and under.
I obtained my D level coaching license with US Soccer in April 2023, and am working to continue my licensure. I love improving and expanding my own knowledge, so I can help these kids to my best ability
I work privately with both boys and girls ages 4-18.
I have played club soccer for 14+ years in the DFW area, with 5+ years doing Olympic development training. I've traveled to 3 separate states with the 1st team in my age group. I kicked for a year and a half at an NCSA college. I was then offered an opportunity to walk onto a DI University to kick for the football team, but instead chose to go to a smaller DII school to kick for their team.
At each stage of development, I focus on a different aspect of the athlete's needs. From ages 4-5 I focus on the love and fun of the game, and on basic movements and techniques with the ball. From ages 6-7, I focus on the fundamentals and basics of shooting, passing, defending and dribbling, using teaching methods that help their technique. From ages 8-9, I focus on advanced fundamentals, such as learning new skills and ways to use their body in different ways, plus reaction speed and scanning the field. From ages 10-11, I focus on the player becoming their own unique individual, and to find the position on the field they'll excel at. I'll also be enhancing their reaction speed and ability to scan the field, in combination with bringing out their competitive side to help them improve faster than they could've imagined. Ages 12+ I will circle back to correct their weaknesses, keeping the love for the game alive, and to help them find intrinsic motivation to improve on their own, when nobody is watching.
I aim to perfect their fundamentals of: movement, scanning the field, positioning, body shape, and ball control. With these, I want them to gain confidence and use their ability to make quick and smart decisions. I then want to implement strategy and the ideas surrounding the game, so they can learn to think on their own.
My goal for every age group is to increase their autonomy, to feel comfortable and confident with their skill set, and their drive to continue to make mistakes and improve.

Coach Ben has been great! Both of our kids love him and he’s done a great job implementing appropriate drills they actually enjoy to help with problem areas we’ve mentioned. We already noticed improvement in them after the first session

Isabel (CoachUp client)
Traveling from San Antonio to the DFW area for the summer, I needed my son to continue his soccer training, I found Coach Ben on CoachUp and have been very pleased with the communication, training and progress my son has made under his guidance. Coach Ben's expertise and dedication are evident in every session. He creates a supportive environment that challenges players to improve while also fostering a love for the game. His structured approach ensures that each training session is productive and tailored to my son's development needs. Additionally, Coach Ben's clear communication style and responsiveness have made scheduling and coordinating sessions seamless, despite the distance. I highly recommend Coach Ben to anyone seeking quality soccer coaching in the DFW area.

Brittney (CoachUp client)
Coach Ben was great with my daughter she enjoyed her first session. We booked more sessions with him.
Rafael (CoachUp client)
We have had 4 sessions with Ben so far and he has been great with my 7 y/o daughter. We wanted to focus on her shooting, dribbling, and overall ball control and he has been stellar. Ben has shown a good range of drills and techniques, while having the patience to explain, demonstrate, and give coaching points where needed.
Mary (CoachUp client)
We had our first session with Ben and my son enjoyed the session very much. He said that it was very good and he wants to do it again.
Michael (CoachUp client)
Great at building a personalized plan for you and your development needs/ goals. Go to Ben if you’re looking for a trainer to customize a workout to meet your needs and help better you!
Yanny (CoachUp client)
Coach Ben has been great. After the first session with coach Ben, my son is happy to continue training. His technique and training methods are exactly what every kids needs. Training should not be complicated and coach Ben makes it very simple and effective. We will definitely continue training with him until my son is ready for academy soccer. Thank you for what you do.
Doyle (CoachUp client)
This the first private training session we have done for our daughter before so we were a little nervous going in to it. But after just a few minutes of talking to him everyone was at ease. We had only signed up for just one lesson but after she got done she wanted more so we signed up to continue training. Thanks Coach Ben.
Annette (CoachUp client)
Ben is great with little kids. My 5 year old loves coming to practice. He makes soccer fun for him while teaching him the skills.
Krissie (CoachUp client)
My son had an amazing first session with Coach Ben. He has already shown more confidence during his games and is excited to continue training.
Susan (CoachUp client)
Coach Ben was great with my daughter on the first day. She really appreciated how he explained to her how to improve. She is looking forward to having more sessions and gaining more knowledge of her sport.
Mike (CoachUp client)
He is an awesome coach for my son and he gives such good drills to do that will help on games.
Casey (CoachUp client)
We really like working with Ben. My son has learned so much from him in the 2 lessons so far. His confidence is way up and he is very eager to practice on his own time as Ben suggested. Don‘t think my son has ever been so dedicated on anything yet.
Chris (CoachUp client)
Coach Ben haas really helped my son grow in his skills and confidence, he is patient and works with him on his level.

Stacia (CoachUp client)
Coach Ben is great! He’s calm, patient, and has a great skill set. My six-year old responded so well to him (and listened and focused much more than she would with mom/dad). We will definitely book more sessions with him. Highly recommend!
Monica (CoachUp client)
Coach Ben is great! He has a lot of patience and is very good with kids. My daughter enjoyed working with him and I can’t wait to see how she continues to progress with Coach Ben.
