01 — The Mission
The next level
is earned.
The local talent is here. The problem is that too many players are training the wrong way and ultimately hindering their own development process. At Next Gen, we provide the mentorship, structure, and attention to detail needed to maximize athlete development.
Stop training aimlessly. Stop copying social media drills from people who have never competed at the professional level. High-level standards create high-level players. For athletes serious about reaching the next level, every session must have purpose, intensity, and accountability.
Your child will be mentored to become a disciplined, respectful, and hardworking individual both on and off the field. True character is revealed through everyday choices — how athletes treat others, respond to adversity, and carry themselves when nobody is watching. We take pride in developing mental toughness and resilience.
You are more than your sport. You are a friend, a son, a daughter, a brother, a sister. People need you beyond what you do on the field. Effort, attitude, preparation, and discipline build confidence that lasts beyond competition.
Everything is earned. Talent alone is no longer enough. Enjoy the process.

04 — About Zach
Built by a player
who's been there.
Founder and Head Trainer Zach Verhoven brings firsthand experience from over 100 professional matches and seven seasons in the Canadian Premier League.
Born in Surrey, BC, his development pathway mirrors the journey many young local players aspire to follow. He progressed through the Vancouver Whitecaps FC academy system and Surrey United BCSPL before earning a full ride athletic scholarship to the University of British Columbia, where he competed for the varsity soccer program.
Drafted into the Canadian Premier League in 2019, Zach went on to play for Pacific FC, Atlético Ottawa, and Vancouver FC. His career also gave him the opportunity to compete internationally in Spain, China, Australia, Fiji, and the United States, facing top academies and clubs abroad.
"I had no direction as a youth player. I made countless mistakes and only began to understand the habits required once I entered a professional environment. My goal is to ensure every athlete I work with understands the importance of enjoying the process, maintaining a positive mindset, and building consistent habits on and off the field. We’re here to develop winners but more importantly, to develop good people."
