We take what children love to do the most (running super fast, jumping high and throwing far) and mix it with imaginative themes, learning to follow instructions, making friends and developing gross motor skills. Taking inspiration from track and field, it is the magical combination of imaginative play, sport and burning energy! Expert Co-Founders: * Kirk: As a former strength and conditioning coach for elite athletes, Kirk understands the importance of developing athleticism early. His expertise ensures that Mini Athletics provides fantastic programs that build a strong foundation for all sports. * Clare: With a background as an elementary school teacher, Clare knows that physical development is crucial for sparking interest in other sports as children grow older. Her experience ensures that our programs are both educational and engaging. Low Startup Fees: The absence of real estate expenses and the streamlined nature of a mobile business result in low startup fees. This affordability allows more entrepreneurs to enter the market and start their Mini Athletics franchise with minimal financial burden. Positive Community Impact: Mini Athletics has a profound positive impact on local communities. By promoting physical activity and athletic development among young children, we contribute to healthier, more active lifestyles. Our programs also foster social interaction, teamwork, and community engagement. Flexible Business Model: Our franchise model offers exceptional flexibility in terms of location and hours of operation. Franchisees can choose when and where to conduct classes, allowing them to adapt to community needs and their personal schedules. This flexibility makes it easier to balance work and life commitments while running a successful business. Potential for Profitability: The combination of low overheads and strong community interest creates a significant potential for profitability. With minimal fixed costs and a high demand for engaging programs for young children, franchisees can achieve substantial returns on their investment. Why We Stand Out: Mini Athletics offers a unique business in a sport that is not covered in the USA at this age. We offer a flexible and profitable business opportunity with low startup costs and a positive community impact. Our mobile business model and focus on early childhood athleticism through the sport of track and field sets us apart from other franchise concepts, making Mini Athletics an appealing choice for aspiring entrepreneurs., sales_process=Franchise Sales Process Initial Zoom Meeting: Purpose: Introduce the business and establish a connection with the potential franchisee.

That is, for every sale that goes through with a Sidekick lead, we will pay Sidekick $25,250. However, this will rise to $30,000 when the FDD is renewed in 2025 as will be increasing the franchise fee to $36,500., locations_open=1, currently_franchising=Yes, required_net_worth=30000, contact_zip_code=32809, website=www.miniathleticsfranchising.com, services_image_bottom_large=https://commandcenter.franchisesidekick.com/brand_image/14163075121/services_image_large_2, white_logo=https://commandcenter.franchisesidekick.com/brand_image/14163075121/white_logo, submission_idempotent_id=eb1405b5-a341-4a29-807b-682441b5d0dd, sales_contact_phone=3862220821, item_7_low=34450, referral=Christian Dadulak - we were really impressed with his linkedin content. We want to work with a broker organization that is both ethical and cares about the brands it is selling. Franchise sidekick is the first that we have come across that ticks both of those boxes. We understand that we may need to develop in the USA before you would like to work with us which is absolutely fine. We have athriving network of franchisees in the UK, Ireland and Dubai and see no reason why our program will not succeed in the USA., hs_lastmodifieddate=1722280754517, number_of_associated_contacts=1, contact_created=true, main_logo=https://commandcenter.franchisesidekick.com/brand_image/14163075121/main_logo, services_image_top_small=https://commandcenter.franchisesidekick.com/brand_image/14163075121/services_image_small, hs_object_source=FORM, item_7_high=47250, application_invite_link=https://www.franchisesidekick.com/zor-application-invite?brand_name=Mini%20Athletics, year_started_franchising=2017, dynamic_page_slug=mini-athletics}
