Head Coach Ryan Dean

Ryan Dean is entering his fourth campaign as the head coach of Ambassadors FC Ohio (since the 2022 season). In that time, the program has grown from a single 24-man squad to a complete development pathway for u23 and senior players to continue playing the sport at the highest available level in the region. Dean now serves as the men’s program Technical Director and oversees 60+ athletes across our men’s first team and u23 squads.

Dean is a former AFC youth player, and joined the program initially in 2015 before becoming a staff coach in 2019.

Ryan is currently the Assistant Men’s Soccer Coach at NCAA DII Lake Erie College, his latest intercollegiate coaching position.

Dean picked up his first piece of silverware as head coach in 2024 when the u23 program won the NOSL Stimulus League Cup.
