Soccer Shots Franchise

Soccer Shots, a Soccer Shots Franchising franchise, has been franchising since 2009 - 4 years after the concept was founded in 2005 , currently with 350 total locations in the education sector, headquartered in PA. The 2024 FDD lists a total initial investment between $35K and $66K, with the 89% low-to-high spread driven mainly by site size, market, and how extensive the buildout runs. Included in that number: the franchise fee of $28K, equipment, leasehold improvements, and initial working capital to carry the business through ramp-up.

Royalty payments here are set at 8.0% of gross sales, plus a 2.0% national ad-fund contribution on top -- 10.0% combined out of every sales dollar. Notably, Soccer Shots does not disclose financial performance (Item 19) in its FDD. That is common (Item 19 is optional under the FTC Franchise Rule) but it puts the burden on prospective buyers to survey existing franchisees (Item 20 contact list), model unit economics from public comparables, and demand validated profit-and-loss data before signing.

Soccer Shots's network is expanding: unit count grew at a 2.9% net rate over the past year (20 openings, 10 closures). Sustained positive growth is a signal that the unit-economics are working well enough to attract new operators, though late-stage growth can also reflect aggressive sales push rather than operational health.
