Why The Youth Business Is BOOMING!

The family investment into the youth sports lifestyle culture of league, camps, elite programs, special equipment, private coaching, travel and the influx of massive new sports complexes are all feeding into this multi billion dollar Family "SportCation" Business. 
​
Long gone are the days of warm orange slices and stopping for an ice cream after another rushing defeat to the State Farm Yankees. Today it's about elite travel teams, several weekend tournaments, hotel rooms, flights, pop up tents, condo coolers, gluten free pizza, $7 half cafe/half soy coffee, $50 dry fit shirts and $150 warm ups..and that's just for the parents!
​
Remember sitting your kids youth soccer league game and listening to another parent spout "I can run this league better, or look how much these are making selling TShirts and snow cones?  Maybe that was you who thought and said it? 
As the costs, liability and bandwidth of city recreational departments began to shrink, private operators started taking over community leagues. What happen was these city run or volunteered based board of director league have started to fade away because of budget cuts, higher insurance costs or it was impossible to find someone who wasn't going to steal have the leagues concession money. 
Three Reasons Why The Youth Sports Business is Booming:

1. Private Operators and for Profit Clubs have taken over from city park recs and volunteered run youth leagues
2. Parents do not allow their kids to play pick up sports outside since the 90's so all their kids pick up games now have to be organized and insured which has also lowered the beginners age to age three!
3. The entrance point is easier now for anyone to start a league, rent a field, throw out a lawn sign and have access to connect with the community via social media has changed the game.

Yea I left out all the inflated parent ego's driving the business too, but that is for another article.  North American Sports Group, the largest provider of grassroots youth sports tournaments in the US, has launched a nationally sanctioned youth sports league opportunity for entrepreneurs who want to build a home based youth sports business in the community but without the franchise model.  

There is a combination of forces happening here that makes these opportunities happen.  A new work force and double income families who really want freedom and control of their lives, and a business that is incredibly scalable as there is no shortage of kids and families that participate in youth sports.
