Why SportyBeans?
Making a Difference
At SportyBeans, we believe we can make a difference—a difference in the lives of children and young professionals. We have long subscribed to the quote attributed to JFK which reads:
" Children are the worlds most valuable resource and its best hope for the Future! "
Apart from being a high potential business, the sense of fulfilment that comes from making a positive impact on a kid’s future is the most striking aspect of the SportyBeans franchise opportunity.
We have the opportunity every day to see and feel the difference that we’re able to make. You can make a difference too — for the children in your programs, for your family and for yourself. Owning your own business is not for everyone, but for those with the passion, determination and skills to succeed, a SportyBeans franchise can be a way to control your destiny and create your own security.
A Proven Business Model
The SportyBeans business model has been developed and refined over the last 3 years. Our superior training, methodology and curriculum results in a high quality children’s sports program that can be operated with limited overhead costs. The business can be operated from your home in the early stages and yet is scalable, giving owners excellent opportunities for growth.
Growing Demand
Educators, health care practitioners and parents are increasingly aware of the benefits of physical activity for children. There is also a growing awareness of the importance of starting at the earliest ages. Today’s busy parents often rely on high caliber programs offered outside of the home and within their community. SportyBeans meets that need and offers age-appropriate instruction that has been developed with the hundreds of children that have benefitted from our programs.
A High-Quality Product
SportyBeans offers weekly programs, camps and clinics (during school holidays), birthday parties and special events. SportyBeans programs are offered right in the community at venues such as community centres, social clubs, schools and local recreational facilities. Our instruction is age-appropriate and focuses on 9 popular ball sports: hockey, soccer, basketball, baseball, volleyball, tennis, golf, rugby and cricket. Instruction is carefully designed to focus on improving gross motor development, physical strength, balance, stamina, coordination and social skills.
Through creative instruction, customized sports equipment and positive encouragement, children have the opportunity to learn and participate in sport in a fun and exciting environment. Children are taught the fundamental skills of each sport and have the opportunity to practice and refine these skills individually and in game situations. Creative games and activities are incorporated into classes, which allow children to interact with peers while acquiring a range of skills essential for sport and life.
The SportyBeans Difference
One of our greatest strengths is the quality of our instruction—for children, for coaches, and for our franchisees. As a franchisee you would participate in our one-week training program prior to launching your business. You would have access to our training manuals, which detail week-by-week lesson plans for each program. You would also have ongoing training in our methodology, as well as the business, marketing and administrative support to help you develop operate and grow your business.
The quality behind our programs and sessions is a result of dedicated research aimed at making our sessions fun and interesting for the kids. Hence it’s not what we offer but how we offer it that differentiates the SportyBeans offering.
A SportyBeans franchise is available for a relatively low total investment, making it an affordable way to start making a difference.
