The Findlay Force are excited to announce we have hired Robert Fitzgerald as our Director of Security for the 2026-27 season!

With more than 20 years of combined military and law enforcement experience, Robert brings proven leadership and a deep commitment to safety and youth development. He currently serves as a School Resource Officer and wrestling coach, working closely with students and staff every day.

Robert has multiple certifications including being a certified Subject Control Instructor and Firearms Instructor and has experience teaching at multiple Ohio Peace Officer Training Academies in critical skills topics while also being recognized by Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) DUI Top Cop awards for his outstanding work. Robert holds a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice from Purdue University Global and is a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at Spartan Martial Arts.

When he’s not on duty protecting our community, coaching wrestling, or training at Spartan Martial Arts, you’ll find him creating lasting memories with his wife and four children right here in Findlay.

Help us give a warm welcome to Robert Fitzgerald as he joins the Force’s team!
