The Youth Sports Management Conference is hitting the road.

For the first time, we’re bringing the networking, thought leadership, and high-impact conversations of NextUp directly to youth sports operators in the Southern and Western part of the US.

 

Designed for a curated group of youth sports owners and administrators, this intimate regional experience creates space for meaningful connection, local perspective, and practical strategies you can immediately put to work in your organization.

 

Space is highly limited by design. Register now to reserve your spot.
