UNCOVER OUR STORY

THE ORIGIN OF NEXT LEVEL ATHLETICS FOUNDED BY A PLAYMAKER. BUILT FOR LEGACY.

JAKE HOFFMAN - FOUNDER / OWNER

JAKE DIDN’T JUST PLAY THE GAME — HE REDEFINED IT. FROM THE STREETS OF SPOKANE TO THE RED TURF OF EASTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY, JAKE CARVED HIS NAME INTO THE FABRIC OF COMPETITION. A TWO-TIME STATE CHAMPION IN TRACK AND ALL-STATE FOOTBALL STANDOUT AT NORTH CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL, HE EARNED HIS STRIPES EARLY — NOT THROUGH HYPE, BUT THROUGH HUSTLE.

AT EWU, JAKE BECAME A DEFENSIVE FORCE. AS A FOUR-YEAR CONTRIBUTOR AT CORNER AND SAFETY, HE RACKED UP 112 TACKLES, 3 INTERCEPTIONS, AND 17 PASS BREAKUPS ACROSS 46 GAMES. HE HELPED LEAD THE EAGLES TO THREE BIG SKY CONFERENCE TITLES (2013, 2014, 2016), AND IN HIS FRESHMAN YEAR, HE SET A SCHOOL RECORD WITH SIX PASS BREAKUPS IN A SINGLE GAME AGAINST RIVAL MONTANA — A MARK THAT STILL STANDS AND RANKS THIRD ALL-TIME IN DIVISION I FCS HISTORY.

BUT JAKE’S VISION EXTENDED BEYOND THE FIELD. HE SAW THE GAPS IN ATHLETE DEVELOPMENT — THE LACK OF ELITE SYSTEMS, INTENTIONAL BRANDING, AND SCALABLE IDENTITY. SO HE BUILT NEXT LEVEL ATHLETICS: A MULTI-PILLAR BRAND DESIGNED TO ELEVATE ATHLETES, COACHES, AND YOUTH THROUGH PRECISION, PRIDE, AND PURPOSE.

NLA ISN’T JUST A PROGRAM. IT’S A MOVEMENT. EVERY LOGO, EVERY ACRONYM, EVERY YARD LINE IS INTENTIONAL. EVERY REP IS A STEP TOWARD LEGACY.

FOUNDED BY A PLAYER WHO LIVED THE GRIND AND NOW LEADS THE SYSTEM, NEXT LEVEL ATHLETICS IS WHERE ELITE IDENTITY IS FORGED — AND WHERE THE NEXT GENERATION LEARNS WHAT IT TRULY MEANS TO GO NEXT LEVEL.

BEFORE FOUNDING NEXT LEVEL ATHLETICS, JAKE LED ONE OF THE MOST EXPLOSIVE GROWTH PHASES IN REGIONAL SPORTS DEVELOPMENT. JAKE HAS TRANSFORMED PROGRAMS FROM LOCAL OPERATIONS INTO A NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED BRANDS.

ASHTON GANT — FOUNDATIONAL COACH

AG IS MORE THAN A COACH — HE’S A CORNERSTONE. A DECORATED MULTI-SPORT ATHLETE FROM PULLMAN HIGH SCHOOL, ASHTON HELPED LEAD THE GREYHOUNDS TO A PERFECT 14-0 SEASON AND A STATE 2A CHAMPIONSHIP, SCORING A GO-AHEAD TOUCHDOWN ON A KICKOFF RETURN IN THE TITLE GAME. HIS EXPLOSIVE PLAYMAKING EARNED HIM ALL-STATE HONORS ACROSS MULTIPLE POSITIONS, AND HIS DOMINANCE EXTENDED TO THE TRACK, WHERE HE SET MEET RECORDS AND LED PULLMAN TO A TEAM TITLE AT THE STATE 2A CHAMPIONSHIPS.

AT EASTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY, ASHTON’S VERSATILITY AND RESILIENCE DEFINED HIS COLLEGIATE CAREER. TRANSITIONING FROM CORNERBACK TO WIDE RECEIVER, HE CONTRIBUTED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL AND MADE HIS MARK IN THE RETURN GAME. HIS RECORD-SETTING PERFORMANCE IN THE FCS PLAYOFFS AND CLUTCH CATCHES IN EWU’S PLAYOFF-CLINCHING WIN OVER NORTHERN ARIZONA SHOWCASED HIS ABILITY TO RISE IN THE BIGGEST MOMENTS. IN 2010, ASHTON BECAME PART OF HISTORY — HELPING EWU CAPTURE ITS FIRST-EVER FCS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. THAT TITLE WASN’T JUST A WIN. IT WAS A LEGACY MOMENT. AND ASHTON LIVED IT.

TODAY, ASHTON BRINGS THAT CHAMPIONSHIP DNA TO NEXT LEVEL ATHLETICS. AS THE ORIGINAL ADDITION TO NLA, HE SERVES AS A FOUNDATIONAL COACH AND MENTOR — GUIDING ATHLETES WITH THE SAME DISCIPLINE, HUMILITY, AND COMPETITIVE FIRE THAT SHAPED HIS OWN JOURNEY. ASHTON BRINGS MULTI-SPORT WISDOM, CHAMPIONSHIP EXPERIENCE, AND A DEEP UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IT TAKES TO SUCCEED AT EVERY LEVEL.

EVERY ATHLETE WHO COMES THROUGH NLA LEARNS FROM ASHTON. EVERY REP CARRIES HIS STANDARD. EVERY MOMENT REFLECTS HIS LEGACY.
