Coach Roland Bell

12/04/2026

Daytona Beach Christian University is thrilled to announce the hiring of Coach Roland Bell as the new Head Football Coach, bringing decades of coaching experience, proven leadership, and a deep passion for developing student-athletes on and off the field.

Coach Bell’s journey is marked by service, perseverance, and competitive success. He served proudly in the Alabama Army National Guard as a helicopter mechanic while attending Troy State University, where he earned a degree in Physical Education. He later continued his academic growth, completing a Biology degree at Auburn University and a master’s in Sports & Fitness Management from Troy University–Ft. Benning.

Over the past 25+ years, Coach Bell has taught physical education and biology in Alabama public schools, while coaching multiple sports and serving as an athletic director. In 2018, he joined Southern Preparatory Academy as Head Football Coach and later became Athletics Director. His leadership helped elevate the program—earning national titles, expanding student-athlete development, and opening scholarship opportunities for players pursuing higher levels of competition.

Coach Bell believes in high-expectation coaching grounded in strong values, team discipline, and Christ-centered mentorship. His mission is to build a championship-caliber program while guiding young men to become leaders in faith, family, and life.

“Coach Bell brings more than wins to DBCU—he brings a commitment to excellence, integrity, and spiritual growth,” said DBCU Athletic Director Andros Desir. “Our student-athletes will benefit tremendously from his vision, his experience, and his heart for developing confident, capable men of God. We are honored to welcome him to Daytona Beach.”

Coach Bell is excited to lead the Seraphim onto the field and begin shaping the future of DBCU Football. Together, we look forward to building a program rooted in purpose, determination, and faith.

Please join us in giving Coach Bell a warm Seraphim welcome to Daytona Beach Christian University!

Welcome to DBCU, Coach Bell — Let’s Rise and Soar! 🏈🕊️

  • God First
  • Teamwork
  • Compete with the heart of a CHAMPION!
