John B.

I am the Founder & Director of the B.Y.R.D Elite Basketball (Building Youth Reaching Dreams) youth basketball league in South Jersey. I have over 15 years coaching experience which includes both the High School & College Level. I've coached at Chichester & Strath Haven highschools in PA as well as Goldey-Beacom College in Delaware. I have experience coaching at varying ages as well as skill level. I can work with beginner players and turn them into advanced players or work with more advanced players to help develop and fine tune their skills even further to give them a competitive edge on the court.

I spent 2 years at Delaware Tech Community College as a starter and scholarship athlete. During my first year we won the 1st conference championship in school history. After my time at Del Tech I went on to finish my college basketball career at Goldey-Beacom College where I was also a scholarship recipient. After that I went on to play a season in the USBL before the league folded.

All of my sessions will catered towards the individual and their skill level. I will teach all of the basic skills and fundamentals of basketball including but not limited to shooting, passing, ball handling, defense & conditioning. I will also tailor each session with position specific drills and exercises. Whether you are a guard or post player I can teach you specific drills to help you improve your game and take it to the next level.
