Destination Imagination · NExT Region
Every kid needs a team.
Every team needs a kid like yours.
The NExT Region matching hub helps parents connect their kids with Destination Imagination teams that have open spots — so every young creator, builder, and performer finds their place.
The NExT Region is looking for more team managers
Every team needs an adult to lead it, and you don't have to do it alone. Team managers can request a NExT Region Jr. Board member to help run meetings and guide the team, and get access to training and resources to support you all season — no prior DI experience required.

How matching works
Three simple steps — whether you're a parent looking for a team for your child or a team manager looking for teammates.
Create your account
Make a free parent account, showcase your child (first name, grade, school), and mark if you're willing to be a team manager.
Find parents near you
See nearby families on a map with a mile-radius filter, or browse the list by school, grade, and challenge interests.
Connect & form your team
Send a connection request. Contact info stays hidden until you both accept — then swap emails and launch your season.
