About Indiana BEST
Our teams are just that, the best.
Established in 2021, Indiana BEST is committed to taking sports to a new level. Elite athletes are not born, they are made from hard work, dedication to the sport, and determination to be the best, on and off the field.
More than just sports teams, our athletes are positive role models in their personal lives, academic leaders in their classrooms, and busy making changes in their communities through hands on service.
The Indiana BEST Team
Amber Barnhill
CEO / CFO
I am a dedicated member of Indiana BEST and the youth of my community. After years of fostering children in my own community alongside my husband, President Alan Barnhill, I have dedicated my life to making a difference in the youth of this generation and many generations to come.
With over 10 years of experience in organizing and maintaining youth sports teams - as well as 15 years of accounting experience - I will ensure that our organization is held to an Elite standard from our players to our coaches and board members, down to the finances of the organization.

Deanna Pilkington
Board of Directors
I am a very involved mom of two awesome boys. I have worked hard to grow my career in Management and Human Resources to be able to provide better opportunities for my children. I have also been involved in football as a team mom for many years now striving to provide those same opportunities and experiences to other children as well. My goal has always been to help develop the players on and off the field and them have fun while doing so. I feel this helps our athletes grow into responsible young adults. I strive on developing good habits in our youth through the sport of football. As a board member I would like to continue to build strong bonds between board members, coaches, parents and players through quality organization and communication which is the key in creating a positive environment. Indiana Best has proven to me it is a great community and I am excited to apart of its growth in the future.
