Payton Kamin Joins THE Next Game as our Newest Athlete Fellow!
We have some massive news to share, and the energy in the room is off the charts.
The NOVA Foundation and Next Game are incredibly proud to officially announce the newest addition to our family: Payton Kamin is joining us as a Next Game Athlete Fellow!
You might recognize Payton from the court, driving the lane and lighting things up for the Penn Quakers men's basketball team. His skill, vision, and dedication on the hardwood are undeniable, and who he is off the court makes him the perfect fit for the Next Game mission.
What is the Next Game Athlete Fellowship?
At Next Game, our mission has always been clear: we are here to support, inspire, and elevate the next generation of college athletes and create a space for them to determine what’s next after sport. We are deeply committed to cultivating holistic growth—building resilience, fostering community leadership, and helping individuals thrive in whatever their "next game" in life might be.
Our Athlete Fellows serve as the bridge between elite-level athletics and that next chapter. These collegiate athletes create their own athlete socials, build community around sport, and discover what their next chapter will be while competing.
Looking Ahead: The Next Chapter
We are entering a thrilling new chapter at the NOVA Foundation and Next Game, and supporting athletes like PK ensures our impact will only grow deeper. Check out this link to apply for our paid athlete fellowship.
Please join us in giving a massive welcome to Payton! We cannot wait to see his growth on and off the court, and his impact on his community.
