About the Opportunity
In 2002, Christine Kelly was living in London and having trouble finding pre-school football classes for her son. So, she decided to do it herself. After a successful pilot class, demand for Little Kickers soared, and Christine found herself running 35 weekly classes around London. In 2004, Christine partnered with football and developmental experts to professionalise the classes while employing the franchise model to scale the business beyond London.
After two decades, Little Kickers has become the premier provider of pre-school football classes with over 320 franchises in 26 countries. Each week, over 80,000 children have fun learning football skills while being introduced to important pre-school concepts like colour and number recognition, sharing, following instruction and using imagination.
In 2023, Little Kickers joined Stronger Youth Brands, an international youth sports and enrichment platform. As an integral part of Stronger Youth Brands, Little Kickers will have access to significant capital, resources, and industry knowledge that will expedite its growth and development as an international franchise.
