Market Analysis
Total available market –Sports coaching (market) - $8 Billion Dollar Industry
$50,000 - $100,000 (potential purchasing volume)
146,000 businesses experienced growth of nearly 3 percent. The sports coaching field is expected to continue performing well in the years to come due to increased participation in sports for health benefits as well as to offset the high cost of college tuition through sports scholarships.
The rising incidence of obesity in the United States is expected to stimulate demand for trainers.
There is no certification process to become a skills development trainer. This market is open to allowing anyone with basketball IQ to coach or train athletes. There is a lack of consistency, growth and development in the game because this area has no credential regulations.
At the end of the decade trainers faced competition for business from less expensive instructional alternatives.
Target Market
All skill ranges of athletes located in the Boston area
Our important customers are the youth, adolescent and college athletes looking to achieve a high-level of success from the goals they set.
