Buy a TGA Premier Sports Franchise

TGA Premier Sports is a mobile youth sports franchise delivering introductory programs for children through schools, community centers, and park districts. The core offering covers golf, tennis, and pickleball, with additional team sports available, across multiple formats: enrichment classes, camps, clinics, and leagues. TGA brings programs into familiar community settings rather than traditional club or private-facility environments.

TGA has been operating for over 20 years and is now part of Youth Athletes United (YAU), a multi-brand youth sports platform. The brand sits alongside Amazing Athletes and Soccer Stars amongst other, giving franchisees access to shared operational systems, marketing resources, and a wider peer network. Territories are exclusive and protected.

The business model requires no physical location. Franchisees generate revenue through program registration fees, camps, clinics, leagues, and school or park district partnerships. TGA’s proprietary curriculum was developed with educators and sports governing bodies, including the USTA for tennis and Franklin for pickleball, and aligns with the American Development Model.

Why buy a TGA Premier Sports Franchise?

The appeal of buying a TGA Premier Sports franchise starts with a revenue model built on recurring enrollment. The Keep Playing!® Player Pathway Model guides students from introductory classes through progressive skill stages, building multi-season relationships within the school and community networks a franchisee develops. The model is adaptable: owners can focus on golf, tennis, pickleball, or a combination, and can run the business themselves or build a coaching and management team.

TGA’s position within Youth Athletes United opens options for multi-brand ownership alongside Soccer Stars, Amazing Athletes, and others in the YAU portfolio. The TGA Sports Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, allows franchisees to apply for grants to extend programming to under-resourced families, a differentiator for community-rooted operators.

TGA Premier Sports – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    TGA provides HQ-led initial training at its New York headquarters, covering live class delivery, business systems, and coach hiring. Ongoing support includes in-territory business development coaching, a dedicated peer support team, and an annual franchise summit. Franchisees access an online portal for hiring and onboarding coaching staff, a digital marketing library, a content-managed website, e-commerce registration tools, and an in-house marketing team. Resale buyers should confirm with TGA what onboarding and system access is provided when ownership changes.

  2. Ideal Owner

    TGA suits community-minded operators comfortable building relationships with schools, parks, and recreation departments. Prior sports instruction experience is not required; the franchisor provides curriculum and coach training. The role centers on sales, partnership outreach, enrollment promotion, and team management rather than direct coaching. Owners can run the business hands-on or hire a management team as they scale. Experience recruiting and managing part-time staff is an asset, since coaching teams are the primary service delivery mechanism.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    TGA Premier Sports has earned consistent recognition from Franchise Business Review, receiving the FBR Top Franchise Satisfaction Award in 2024 and further recognitions in 2023, 2021, 2020, and 2019, including Top Franchise, Top Low-Cost Franchise, Most Innovative, and Top Services designations. TGA is an FBR Hall of Fame inductee. In Entrepreneur's rankings, the brand has appeared in the Franchise 500® and was named a Top Low-Cost Franchise, ranked No. 78 in 2021 and No. 100 in 2022 based on Franchise 500 analysis. The brand was also cited by Franchise Business Review among its Top 200 Franchises for 2026.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US after-school program industry is valued at an estimated $23 billion and is growing as dual-income families rely on structured enrichment outside school hours. Demand has broadened from academic programming to include sports and physical development, supporting TGA's school- and community-based model. Pickleball's rapid growth among youth audiences offers franchisees an additional program category with current consumer interest. For resale buyers, demand from local schools and park districts can provide a stable enrollment base, though territory-level performance varies.
