Owning a Sports Franchise: 5 Types You May Not Have Considered
Blog> Franchise
Millions of people watch sports, participate in sports or utilize sports as a great way to stay healthy and fit. It’s no surprise that sports franchising is a $39 billion industry in the U.S with 18% growth this year alone, thanks to the re-opening of in-person events.
The benefit of being part of a sports franchise is that the playbook is written for you and the ball is in your court.
As a franchisee, you have a proven model and business operation, training, on-going support and a team of like-minded franchisees you can turn to for networking.
If you’re interested in owning a franchise related to a sports and fitness franchise, let’s take a look at five types.
Five Types of Sports Franchises
- Sports camp:Â If you love sports and kids, an afterschool or summer sports camp would be a good fit. The primary mission of most of these franchises is to teach life skills through sports for youngsters from kindergarten through grade school.
Pro:Â This is a well-established franchise option with a great opportunity for growth.
Con:Â You need to be located in an area with a large population of children who will have interest and will participate in the camps.
- Sports retail:Â For those who prefer retail sales in the sports franchise industry, there are some interesting concepts. For example, you could sell new and used sporting merchandise at reasonable price points.
Pro: This is a growing industry because people need affordable sports equipment.
Con: The retail sporting goods market is very competitive and some people do not like using used merchandise.
- Sports photography:Â This is perfect for those who love photography. You could specialize in photographing sporting events and athletes.
The concept is to shoot photos of athletes and teams either by individual hiring or through a contract with schools, churches or sports organizations. It provides an opportunity for expansion because you may become the photographer of choice at some schools who will utilize your photography skills to do non-sports shoots as well.
This franchise provides great flexibility and can be used as a side hustle, allowing franchise owners to remain employed at their current jobs and use the business as supplemental income. Owners can do the photography themselves or hire photographers, allowing owners to manage the company.
Pro: This can be a very lucrative opportunity if you’re in an area with an ample amount of team sports and are good at securing contracts to ensure revenue.
Con: This can be very competitive as many people believe they can take great photos of sporting events.
- Gyms: For those interested in fitness and working out, coming up with a novel concept in membership gym franchises can be a lucrative opportunity. As people continue to be more comfortable being in-person, they enjoy the camaraderie of working out in a fitness center. Perhaps there are interesting classes you can offer.
Pro:Â Boutique fitness is a growing field.
Con: Fitness studios and gyms are a saturated market and highly competitive. It could be difficult to have a constant flow of members to sustain your franchise long-term.
- Sports medicine:Â For those who are interested in the concept of healing and helping people, QC Kinetix is not only ideal for athletes but for anyone experiencing pain from musculoskeletal conditions.
