Amazing Athletes

We are thrilled to share that Amazing Athletes made the list of the Top Recession-Proof Franchisees, selected by Franchise Business Review. For the 2024 list, Franchise Business Review surveyed over 365 brands and 35,000 owners to determine which franchises ranked highest in franchisee satisfaction. They also looked for brands that demonstrated a strong potential to outperform their competitors during challenging economic times. This year, the brands that were selected have over a 10-40% higher satisfaction rating than the industry benchmark. They also report 25% higher annual earnings than competitors. We are proud of our team, Jared Taylor, Adam Geisler, John Erlandson, and countless others who drive our business forward. We also must take time to recognize each of our franchisees, who are passionate, driven, and determined to make a difference in their communities. We are honored to be able to work in an industry that has such an incredible impact on the next generation! #franchising #franchiseawards #youthsports

Last week Jared Taylor, Jonah Crenshaw, and Claire Crenshaw led our newest franchisees through training in Greenville, SC! This month we hosted new and existing franchisees from Chicago, Central Florida, D.C., Miami, Clearwater, Aurora, and Denver. As a new franchisee, you spend four action-packed days in person with our corporate team, getting to know the brand, product, mission, and support systems. Once a franchisee graduates from training, the learning doesn't stop! Virtual training sessions and webinars are hosted in the following weeks for both new and existing owners, so as the industry changes you always have the tools you need to succeed!

Youth Athletes United is thrilled to formally announce SIX new locations, 3 Super Soccer Stars and 3 Amazing Athletes, owned and operated by husband-and-wife duo, Dawn and Kevin Bradford. They will be bringing both brands to the communities of Las Vegas and Cape Coral, FL! The Bradfords have been a part of the children's sports industry for over a decade. In Las Vegas in 2012, they began their independent children’s soccer program to teach local children a passion and love for the sport. Now, joining Youth Athletes United and converting their existing soccer program to Super Soccer Stars, the couple is growing their business. The husband-wife duo is excited to operate their own business and still be able to spend time with their family. “We cannot wait to expand our business throughout Las Vegas and to grow the brand to a new area in Cape Coral,” said Kevin. “Growing up in sports there are many life lessons and values that carry with you to adulthood. We are so excited to be working with Youth Athletes United in assisting us with our growth and increasing our offerings for more various sports opportunities for children.” Read the full story in the comments!

We're welcoming the Ramanathan family into our Amazing Athletes framily this week! As a family, the Ramanathan's have developed a passion and love for working with kids. They understand the importance of physical activity in developing children's physical and mental health. Anna, Meena, and Nacha all have an appreciation for sports, learning, and the arts. Between the three of them, they have experience of their own with track, soccer, volleyball, basketball, and dance.

We are excited to see them thrive in a business that gives back to their community! Jared Taylor John Erlandson Adam Geisler Paul Laudermilch #franchisegrowth #franchiseopportunity #youthsports

We have news! The Amazing Athletes & Super Soccer Stars Westchester territory has new owners! It has been a corporate location for over 17+ years and currently stands as the largest Super Soccer Stars territory within our network of brands. Its location positions these brands as a key provider in the diverse communities of Upper Manhattan, Westchester, and West Fairfield County in Connecticut. After 11 years of dedication to Super Soccer Stars and Youth Athletes United, we are proud to share that David Mares will be operating the territory as President. His partner, Jeff Perlman, brings a fresh perspective with 23 years of experience in consumer and retail sector investments. This match-up is a strategic transition and further proves that Youth Athletes United is dedicated and determined to not only uplift the children we coach but also the employees who are just as passionate as we are. “Our joint focus on impact aligns with our enthusiasm for continued growth, particularly in expanding both Soccer Stars and Amazing Athletes programs within these communities,” shared David Mares, new President of Westchester County Amazing Athletes & Soccer Stars. We are sad to lose David on our corporate team, but we can’t wait to see him dive into this new chapter and are so confident in his abilities to take Westchester to a new level! Way to go David!
