The Players Run is more than just a race — it’s a movement.

Hosted by Next One Up, this 5K run brings together student-athletes, families, and community members for a day of energy, purpose, and impact. Every step taken supports our mission to empower young men through academics, athletics, and personal development.

This year, the Players Run is dedicated to raising funds for student-athlete uniforms, ensuring our guys not only perform at a high level but also represent themselves and the program with pride and confidence.

Whether you’re running, walking, or cheering from the sidelines, you’re helping us invest in the next generation.

Run for the culture. Run for the youth. Run for the next one up. 💪🏾
