Next Play Basketball
All-Girls Basketball Training
Next Play Basketball is Langley’s premier all-girls program dedicated to building
confidence and resilience through elite, skill-focused training in a supportive environment.
OUR Mission
Next Play Basketball is an all-girls basketball training program dedicated to developing confidence, skills, and a love for the game in a positive and empowering environment.
We believe that every athlete deserves a space where they feel supported, challenged, and inspired to grow. Our program focuses not only on basketball fundamentals, but also on building leadership, teamwork, and self-confidence both on and off the court.
At Next Play, we are committed to increasing girls’ participation in sports, especially at a time when we are seeing a decline in girls staying active and involved in athletics. Our goal is to create a safe, encouraging, and motivating space where girls feel confident to play, compete, and continue their journey in sports.
Players are encouraged to take risks, improve their skills, and play with confidence—because every rep, every drill, and every game is an opportunity for the next play.
Whether beginners or developing athletes, we are committed to helping each player reach their full potential.

- Encourages girls to play, stay, and excel in basketball
