Debbie Bell is the assistant coach and operations coordinator for the University of Louisville field hockey program in Louisville, Kentucky, a position she assumed in July 2023 after six years as the program's director of operations. She entered her 10th season at Louisville with the 2025 campaign.
Bell has been part of a Louisville staff that has navigated both postseason runs and roster transition. In 2025, Louisville hosted the ACC Championship and finished 8-10 overall, closing the regular season with a win over No. 9 Syracuse before falling to North Carolina in the conference tournament. After that season, Izzy Bianco, Lauren Masters and Annabel Sep received NFHCA All-West Region recognition, and Sep was named second-team All-ACC. In 2024, Louisville went 6-11 following the graduation of seven players, while Aimee Plumb collected her third NFHCA All-America honor and joined Bianco on the All-West Region team.
