About Legacy Sport
Legacy Sport is dedicated to promoting healthy and active lifestyles among children and young people by providing specialized PE, sport, and health programmes within schools across the UK. Founded to combat rising childhood obesity rates, it offers franchisees the opportunity to work closely with schools to deliver meaningful physical education assistance, helping students improve their fitness and wellbeing in a sustainable way. The franchise model focuses on social impact and education, aiming to empower schools to fulfill national physical education standards and actively promote healthy eating. Franchisees operate largely from home, fostering long-term relationships with schools and contributing positively to local communities.
Unlike traditional sports franchises, Legacy Sport targets a niche with limited competition, making it ideal for individuals who are passionate about sports, education, and community welfare. With relatively low start-up costs and overheads, it offers a flexible but stable business opportunity.
How the Franchise Works
Operating as a Legacy Sport franchisee involves engaging with local schools to provide tailored PE support that aligns with their needs and government funding requirements. Franchisees help schools improve student participation and performance in physical education by supplying expert instructors who collaborate with teachers, increasing their confidence and expertise in delivering high-quality sport programmes.
Using innovative tools like the Sporting Age platform, franchisees monitor and demonstrate the impact of their services, ensuring schools make the most of available sport premium funds. This promotes a sustainable, self-sufficient model whereby schools continually enhance their PE offerings. Franchisees manage relationships, coordinate services, and work towards securing long-term contracts that provide income stability over time.
Investment and Support
Starting a Legacy Sport franchise requires an initial investment of £6,995, making it accessible for newcomers passionate about health and education. Operating primarily from home means overhead costs remain low. While no funding assistance is available, the modest investment level and long-term contractual agreements with schools contribute to a secure revenue stream.
The training and support system equips franchisees with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively deliver PE services and grow their business. Although prior teaching experience is not mandatory, a strong commitment to promoting healthy lifestyles and working closely with educational institutions is essential. The business model emphasizes flexibility, social impact, and sustainable growth within a rewarding industry niche.
