1.40 pm – 2.25 pm ‘Soccer Franchise Opportunities’ Active Soccer, Mark Whitwood
Since 2005 when active soccer was established as an organisation providing football coaching for 4–14 year olds, the company and its brand has developed into one of the leaders in its field, with its products and services available in a growing number of areas throughout the UK and now in Texas USA, which we hope will lead to further expansion overseas. Our original and primary aim of providing Fun, Healthy and Inclusive opportunities for our customers still applies, but in order to improve the quality of our products and services, we decided to develop five different levels with each level focussing on a specific target group. Our franchise area directors and regional managers are regularly required to attend company training events to keep them updated with new developments, skills and qualifications. Partnerships with other key organisations such as Val Sabin and Active IQ mean that active soccer and our staff are being trained to provide multi-skills sessions to our younger customers in schools and to have a role in the education and development of 14-19 year olds interested in a career in the sport and active leisure industry.
