Soccer Time Kids franchising opportunities. Be your own boss and get paid to do what you love
Thank you for considering a Soccer Time Kids franchise!
Established in 2007 Soccer Time Kids (STK) proudly revolutionised early child development using soccer as its main medium. Soccer Time Kids is a unique sports program specifically designed for children aged 1 to 5 years old.
Our goal is for students from Soccer Time Kids to have experienced a fun learning environment that provides them with the confidence and skills to succeed at school not only with their sporting aspirations and with life skills.
We currently have over 2000 toddlers and families participating in our toddler soccer program every week.
Since 2007, Soccer Time Kids has grown to become the leading provider of toddler soccer programs in Melbourne.
One of the key drivers of our business success is the unique relationship our coaches have developed not only with the children but also with their parents. Our coaches are highly skilled, some even qualified, rather than parents volunteering their time. Over time parents see the results in their children, whether it be confidence, coordination, social development or overall skill development. Our success is evident in the ongoing growth of our locations and franchise partners.
