Before I started working with Coach Byrd, I wanted to work on everything; such as game alignment, reading coverages, releases, route running, catching, speed, and strength. Once I started training with Coach Byrd, my whole game changed to an entirely new level, not only on the field but off too. He opened doors for me and gave me knowledge. I understand the game better from a receiver's position and all other positions on the field. He changed my mind to think that simple isn't bad; it's the key to success and consistency. Man, don't think about it; go to coach Byrd! To see how much you learn off one workout with him and see what you need to get better. Also, learn how to get your strengths better, too, because there's always room for improvement. He's a great mentor on and off the field and can change your life like he did mine!

I wanted to become a better all-around receiver from route running, body control, catching, footwork. I noticed that I began to play a lot faster, and I played without using a lot of wasted movement. I was coming out of cuts more explosively, and I created a lot more separation within my routes. My speed drastically went up, and I was able to go from a possession receiver to a receiver that could do some damage after the catch. I got more in tune with my body and learned to make safe/ efficient cuts that would allow me to beat the DB on every rep. I also obtained a more focused mindset and was able to focus on the little things in a more detailed approach. If you are looking to train with Coach Byrd, I would say that you are going to learn how to become a much better receiver and athlete overall. Coach Byrd’s knowledge of the game and understanding of the way the body works is second to none, and he will set you up for success at the next level and in life.

OUR STORY
Byrd Sport & Performance was established with one purpose in mind; to help people reach their athletic goals while teaching them values that stick with them a lifetime. Through our observation, we realized that our multi-sport athletes were finding success in all of their sports while keeping the same movement patterns we developed. Our team of professional coaches understands that we are blessed to have the role we play in our athlete's development. We honor working norms while treating each athlete as 1 of 1.
Minister Robert Byrd is the founder of BSP. He has worked with student-athletes all of his professional careers. Robert worked in education for over 7 years teaching secondary and elementary mathematics, personal development, strategies for success, and personal finance. His love for the development of our youth has always been an intricate part of his life.
Minister Byrd has been involved in almost every aspect of sports. He is a multi-sport athlete, a former project manager in sports facilities, a counselor to at-risk teens, and has coached baseball, basketball, and football. Through personal playing/coaching experience, he knows what it is like to be on the battlefield and to properly prepare for success on and off the playing fields. Minister Byrd headed the top 7 on 7 program in the Metropolitan area "Speed Kills" and is thankful that at least 93% of our athletes earned a college scholarship.
Robert chose to play football in college and enjoyed an illustrious career. His final year was cut short due to an injury. He still earned a tryout at the Baltimore Ravens facilities for multiple NFL Teams. Although Minister Byrd did not make it on an NFL roster, the experience and connections he gained proved to be worth the journey of battling back from that injury to prepare for his tryout. Minister Byrd is dedicated to giving back to the community by sharing his knowledge and understanding of life and sports movement to help foster our youth.
