  • BTS #143: Michael Bewley - PLAE Global Director of Performance & Education

    After 22+ years of coaching at the D-I level, Coach Bewley stepped out of his previous coaching role as Director of Basketball Strength & Conditioning at Clemson University and joined PLAE in July as their Global Director of Performance and Education. 
 Clemson University Head Coach Brad Brownell hired Bewley before the 2016-17 basketball season to advance the Tigers' efforts in the weight room. That decision came to fruition when the Tigers advanced to the 2018 Sweet 16 after being picked second to last to finish in the ACC, capping only the fourth time in school history; the Tigers made a Sweet 16 appearance. Also, Bewley helped the Tigers win Basketball Gold in the FISU University World Games, beat three Top-5 teams in a single season, and snapped a 59-game losing streak to beat the Tar Heels at Chapel Hill.

    Before his Clemson tenure, Bewley was Assistant Director of Strength & Conditioning for the Yellow Jackets from 2012-16, helping Georgia Tech to the National Invitation Tournament's quarterfinals (NIT) in March 2016. He was charged with implementing athletic performance and sports nutrition programs for Georgia Tech men's basketball and men's tennis in four seasons.


    Before his appointment in Atlanta, Bewley was the Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for Basketball & Golf at the University of Dayton from 2005-12. During his tenure, Bewley helped the Dayton Flyers Basketball programs experience improved and sustained success. The men's team captured an NCAA Tournament Appearance to the Round of 32 (2009) and an NIT National Championship (2010). In the same period, the women's team seized an A-10 Conference Tournament Championship (2012), three NCAA Tournament Appearances (2010, 2011, 2012), with one advancing to the Round of 32 (2010). Bewley also served as the Specialist in Sports Nutrition at Dayton.

    Before his tenure with the Flyers, Bewley spent 2002-06 as an Assistant Strength & Conditioning Coach and Specialist in Sports Nutrition at Georgia Southern University. He developed and implemented athletic performance programs for baseball, basketball, soccer, and volleyball while in Statesboro.

    Bewley is a 1998 graduate of Eastern Kentucky University, earning a bachelor's degree in physical education. Bewley earned a master's degree in educational leadership as a graduate assistant strength & conditioning coach at the University of Nevada.

    Originally from Louisville, Ky., Bewley is the creator and founder of DWMASports.com, which allows coaches to perform a movement in the same time it takes to do a dynamic warmup. Bewley is also the president and founder of CriticalReload.com, a nutritional consulting and product company created to safely assist coaches and athletes with gaps in their nutrition utilizing products in association with remote education and online learning. Furthermore, Bewley is a Certified Specialist in Sports Nutrition.

    His wife, Lisa, has worked as an assistant athletic trainer at Kennesaw State University for five years. They have two daughters, Reagan Marie and Kennedy Louise.
