Athletes gain insight into potential career paths and partnerships, while businesses discover the unique leadership and discipline athletes bring to the table.

This event allowed our team to meet amazing athletes in a short amount of time. We were able to interact with these NFL players in several different settings which would not have been possible without Next Play. Our team is already receiving emails from the athletes for follow up sessions. We are thrilled to be a part of these events.

I love Next Play! I have been honored to participate in mulitple events and they exceed all my expectations.
Amazing group of guys, who were hungry to learn and know more about my business but I think overall all the businesses. The other businesses were inspiring and all the events are great and so much fun!

Attending Next Play as a sponsor was not only an exciting experience to mingle and network with the athletes and fellow sponsors, but it was also a great place to build the foundation for new relationships, be it professional or personal. I have come away with new clients, new referral partners, and great connections with many who I plan to keep in my circle moving forward. Oh, and it’s one hell of a party.

Next Play is an intentionally curated event to support athletes thinking about life beyond the game and companies interested in supporting the whole athlete. We were thrilled to participate in this holistic initiative and had a great time thanks to BTG's planning and hospitality.
