Our Mission

We Got Next Sports mission is to positively influence the lives of young people through the vehicle of sports. WGX operates in high risk communities in the Bronx and surrounding areas with programs for kids 6-18. Participants learn the value of teamwork and the importance of discipline, hard work, and responsibility; thereby, enhancing personal fulfillment and self-esteem. The program provides an outlet by which youth in these communities can have fun after school and on the weekends to help them stay out the streets and avoid the violence.

WE GOT NEXT IS A FAMILY

Diverse and inclusive leadership allows an organization to have a positive impact on the youth and community. We strive to constantly learn and educate ourselves to ensure we can serve our community and ensure diversity and inclusion in sports.

PROGRAM PHILOSOPHY

We are deeply passionate about player development in the game of life and sports through a comprehensive system of play that all our program members can execute efficiently. This will allow us to experience the consistent results of competing and winning Championships on and off the court.

Elite Level Skill Training

Our programs are led by former Collegiate and High School players, with expertise in their respective sport. Children are trained in small groups to ensure that they receive personalized care and the utmost benefit from attending our clinics.
