Boom! Next is our 14U|12U|10U program that runs February through May. Tryouts for Boom! Next are in November and December. Boom! Next is our feeder program for Boom! Academy, and consists of 1 training session per week, multiple scrimmages and 2-3 tournaments in the 14U-12U age grouping, though we expect to play more 12U than 14U. Boom! Next is led by our coaches with the help of our top student athlete high school mentors to provide additional resources. The goal of Boom! Next is to provide eager young athletes with the skill and technique training and repetitions necessary to transition to our Academy 14U teams and onto our high school tournament teams. Practices are held exclusively on Sunday afternoons and evenings with most scrimmages being held then as well. The dividing line between the Boom! Academy middle school team and the Boom! Next middle school team is the ability to compete safely against our high school players during training sessions and/or the desire to play only on Sundays and from February through May. We expect overlap between these groups and plan to invite our developmentally advanced Boom! Next players to our Academy team practices.
