Ben’s always been a Bee since hearing the crowds at Griffin Park early on and now he is the BFC Performance Director., via studies at Loughborough and Cambridge, rugby at Northampton and West Hartlepool and then coaching sevens for England and Fiji Sevens and that small matter of Olympic gold in 2016.

One of our own.

In Ben’s own words;
My mum worked and taught in Brentford her whole life, so she grew up knowing lots of people that supported Brentford and would hang out with lots of different groups that supported Brentford without actually going to some of the games. So yeah, I feel lucky that it’s kind of come full circle now and I’m working for the club.
