The Next Gen Program (NGP) is the first stage of Basketball Queensland's athlete development pathway aimed at finding the next generation of athletes that could one day represent Queensland. The program is designed to engage, inspire, and develop all athletes who are involved in representative basketball programs across Queensland.

The Next Gen 12's Pass is available to all athletes competing in U12 BQJBC representative competitions in 2026 (Athletes born in 2015-2017) and includes access to:

Next Gen Camps across Queensland (as many as you'd like)
All Next Gen Hub sessions (as above)
Parent education presentations
Online athlete development workshops
At-home training resources

The Next Gen Program also lays the foundation for future Basketball Queensland opportunities, with exciting U12 initiatives being developed that will combine both development and competition experiences, creating even more pathway opportunities for representative athletes across the state.

*Each camp will consist of 2 x 90min sessions:
