Buy a Redline Athletics Franchise

Redline Athletics is a youth sports performance franchise built around purpose-built training centers for athletes ages 8–18. Founded in 2010 and expanded into franchising nationally, locations typically occupy 5,000 to 15,000 square feet in high-traffic retail areas, providing structured athletic development in dedicated facilities designed for young athletes.

The program model covers speed, agility, strength, power, and sport-specific development, delivered by certified coaches in group and individual settings. Revenue streams include group memberships, invitation-only Elite semi-private sessions, 1-on-1 training, team training packages, adult fitness classes, and an Intro to Sports program for children ages three and up. A character development curriculum and 90-day performance testing cycle are built into the standard offering, giving families measurable outcomes alongside athletic coaching.

In early 2025, the franchise entered a new chapter when its long-serving CEO acquired the system, continuing to lead the national network with dedicated corporate infrastructure covering operations, marketing, and technology from a National Support Center.

Why buy a Redline Athletics Franchise?

Redline Athletics occupies a distinctive position in youth athletic training, combining structured sports performance programming with a character development component that broadens appeal beyond purely performance-driven families. The multi-stream revenue model — memberships, personal training, team packages, adult fitness, and merchandise — gives owners a recurring base alongside project-based income, without requiring separate facilities or operating models.

To buy a Redline Athletics franchise is to enter a category with consistent demand from active, sports-oriented families. The brand’s proprietary Demotu AI motion analysis technology and structured 90-day performance testing differentiate the offering from general gym or recreation centre alternatives, supporting retention and referrals in a community-driven business.

Redline Athletics – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Initial training includes 28 hours of classroom instruction and 17 hours of on-the-job training, with the National Support Center providing ongoing certification programs, sales training, and monthly brand-wide calls. Technology includes a CRM with AI-driven automation, a POS system, a digital operations manual, the Demotu AI motion analysis system, and an athlete app for managing memberships and tracking performance. An internal marketing team supports franchisees with brand guidelines, customizable materials, and coaching. Resale buyers should confirm what onboarding training and system access transfers when a unit changes hands.

  2. Ideal Owner

    Redline Athletics suits community-oriented operators comfortable managing a team of coaches and building relationships with parents and families. A background in sports, fitness, education, or coaching is useful but not required; the franchisor's training covers the operational and programming side. Strong local marketing, membership sales, and staff development are the primary day-to-day priorities. The model works well for hands-on owner-operators invested in building a local community presence, and can support semi-absentee management where a trusted head coach or manager is in place.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Redline Athletics was named one of Entrepreneur Magazine's Top New Franchises in 2018. The brand has built recognition through its presence in the youth sports performance market and its community-centred training model, which combines structured athletic development with character programming that resonates with families and schools. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be considered alongside the reputation of the specific territory, including local reviews, referral sources, and community visibility within its catchment area.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US youth sports market exceeds $40 billion, with an estimated 27 million American children in organized sports and average family spending per child rising 46% since 2019 to over $1,000 annually, per 2025 Project Play data. Demand for specialized performance training is rising as families seek structured athletic development beyond what team coaching alone provides. The market has shown resilience across economic cycles as families treat youth sports spending as a consistent priority. Resale buyers should assess local competition, school-age population density, and existing member enrollment when evaluating a specific territory.
