ABOUT
Preparing athletes to excel in the game and in life.
OUR STORY
Stewart Athletics was born out of a casual conversation about scholarships. In a small barbershop on the Westside of Atlanta, Byron Stewart overheard a few dads squabbling over the costs of education and the value of time spent in the undergraduate classroom. He immediately saw what they apparently were missing - how to leverage assets to earn credentials. All of their sons played basketball, yet no one mentioned the role basketball could play in launching their sons to the next level.
At the opportune moment, Byron chimed in with a question that changed the discourse: have you met with any basketball programs to see what they need next season? The befuddled looks and anxious shrugs were signal enough to him that he had stumbled upon something important, something big perhaps.
BYRON STEWART
FOUNDER + CEO
By trade Byron is a business and process consultant. He’s spent years designing operational excellence programs and leading implementation teams for the Federal government. At home he’s remained grounded in faith and constantly hunting for ways to motivate young people to push boundaries and explore their own potential. Byron is a devoted husband and father, motivational speaker and student advocate. He launched Stewart Athletics in 2019 with intentions of helping basketball hopefuls in the Atlanta Metro area find a path to play and earn a degree. He ended up with a few more clients than he could (initially) handle and passion for recruiting he never knew was percolating beneath the surface.
Byron currently resides in Oakland, CA. He is a graduate of Howard (BA).

“Byron is God-sent! Late last year he said, ‘trust me, your daughter will have multiple offers to choose from’ and by February, she had multiple offers ranging from D1's to NAIA's. It’s great to have someone who believed in my daughter completely.”
- Dr. Desnitta Weekes
