You may not know the name Ben Nuttall but you will probably have seen him either on Soccer AM, somewhere on BBCTV or maybe in the Phillip Schofield advertisement on SKY. Yes, he is a free styler, a footballer who does ridiculous things with a football.

He was a youngster with enough ability to be in the Birmingham City academy but was "let go" at 13 years old, as most are. Below is a video of Ben's achievements with a football. He was addicted to juggling and developing his skills with inventive moves from an early age. His physical build, in the end, limited his progress, among the big boys, where 11v11 became too testing for him. Five a side was not too demanding, but 1 v 0 was best!!
You may also see him playing TeqBall across a customised table tennis table and there are TeqBall free style competitions world wide.

Don't give Phillip Schofield too many accolades for his "wonderful" advert; remember Phil's face is stuck on Ben's body. Ben is a World "Keepy Uppy" record holder and he also carries his [performing skills into social areas such as prisons to demonstrate his wares and encourage others to enjoy the challenge.
He also is "hireable" for occasions commercially, such as parties, for advertisements and for helping improve skills and health through his many activities.
Liv. Cooke, a lady free-styler also does many great things with a football...
