What is NXTPRO
The NXTPRO League is a players platform. Though different than the PRO16 section of the league, the two levels compete frequently over the course of the season, matching up in 676 games just last year alone.
Why NXTPRO
NXTPRO aims to help programs and players find collegiate opportunities, gain exposure through media coverage, and provide a top notch experience. The league has had several division one players over the past few years, but has also helped many players find the right fit at the D2/NAIA/JUCO/D3 level.
