SOCCER SHOTS

SOCCER SHOTS

Soccer Shots franchises offer an elective youth soccer education program that teaches soccer skills and promotes character development to children primarily ages 2 to 8.

SOCCER SHOTS Franchise Analysis

Ever wondered if a part-time kids' program could turn into a scalable business without massive startup hurdles? Soccer Shots has been quietly building a network since 2005, with FDD data hinting at steady expansion and surprisingly clean litigation records. Item 19 earnings disclosure and SBA loan trends reveal a story of accessible financing—but is this youth soccer play the low-risk winner it appears, or hiding operational catches?

Item 7 lays out the initial investment at $42,950-$54,300, covering the $36,500 franchise fee plus modest costs for equipment, insurance, and marketing to launch in your territory. Ongoing fees hit 7% royalty, 1% brand fund, plus a tiered software license (2% on first $50K gross sales down to 0.25%) and $100 annual advisory fee—keeping total outflows predictable for a service-based model hitting preschools and parks. Item 19 disclosure is a big plus here, offering revenue insights across mature units that beat many education franchises, while 15 SBA loans averaging $314,480 show banks back this with real capital access.

System metrics scream stability: 313 franchise locations plus 23 corporate, up 2% from 309 to 316 units, with only 2 terminations, 2 non-renewals, and 14 transfers signaling high retention. Projected 15 new units reflect measured growth in children's enrichment, not hype-driven frenzy. For buyers eyeing flexible hours and character-building soccer curriculum, these numbers point to solid ROI potential in underserved territories, especially with proprietary systems minimizing curriculum risks.

Analysis based on the 2026 Franchise Disclosure Document. All figures should be independently verified before making investment decisions.
