Darren’s involvement in Texas softball began in 2005 coaching recreational league in Keller. Over the next decade, his experience grew from coaching select ball with “All Mixed Up” to serving as a non-parent coach for the Texas Glory and acting as a tournament director in North Richland Hills.

After serving as the State Director for VTD, Darren joined USSSA in 2014 as the Assistant State Director, eventually moving into his current roles as the North Texas State Director and Regional Director for Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, and New Mexico.

Parallel to his work in softball, Darren served a 25-year career in law enforcement, retiring in 2017 from the Fort Worth Police Department. He spent 20 of those years as a Detective, including seven years in the Robbery division and his final six years in the Fraud unit. Prior to his police career, Darren served four years in the U.S. Army as a Military Police officer (MP).

Since retiring from the police department, Darren has focused full-time on running tournaments in the DFW area. He has been married since 1993 and has two daughters who played through high school and are now teachers in Texas.
