About this Business
Overtime Athletics franchise for sale in suburban Los Angeles. The territory stretches from Santa Monica to Ventura, and I’ve run classes in Calabasas, Thousand Oaks, Newbury Park, and Moorpark. My family and I have moved to Colorado for personal reasons, and I had to leave the franchise behind. It’s a great opportunity for anyone who loves sports and kids.
The franchisors are awesome and will train you as if you were buying directly from them. I’m offering the territory at less than a new franchisee would pay and will include introductions to local recreation centers and provide regional market intelligence. For more information on the company, check out otathletics.com.
Growth opportunities
I've established a foothold in the Conejo Valley, but there are huge opportunities in the surrounding areas, including Ventura, Oxnard, Camarillo, Simi Valley, Woodland Hills, Malibu, and Santa Monica. My experience is that there is a hunger for kids' programming, so someone willing to put in the time could grow the business substantially.
Owner's Day-to-Day Involvement
Unless you hire someone to manage the business, the owner's role is to secure new business, plan offerings/classes, hire and train coaches, manage client relationships, and manage the schedule and books. The owner's responsibilities can range from passive to full-time. It all depends on how you want to run your business.
Asset Description
Some signage and OTA marketing materials. I sold most of my equipment.
Reason for Selling
Personal/health reasons prompted my family to move to Colorado.
Why I Love My Franchise
I loved working with the kids, and the rec centers I did business with were great. I was really sorry to leave the franchise behind after such a short time. The franchisors (the two Chris's) are awesome and have been very supportive. They are great to work with, as were the other franchisees. OTA has cultivated a family culture among its owners.
About Overtime Athletics
Overtime Athletics (OTA) is a youth sports franchise that runs multi-sport programs for children aged 3 to 14. The lineup covers after-school enrichment classes, SPARK classes for preschoolers aged 3 to 5, summer and holiday camps, birthday parties, leagues, clinics and neighborhood sports pods. Sports include basketball, soccer, flag football, lacrosse and tennis, taught in a non-competitive format that puts participation and sportsmanship first.
Franchisees do not run a facility. Programs take place on partners’ premises: elementary schools and parent organizations, parks and recreation departments, community associations, churches, YMCAs and private sports venues. Owners work from home inside a protected territory and staff sessions with part-time coaches who follow OTA’s curriculum.
OTA was founded in 2003, began franchising in 2016 and is headquartered in Reston, Virginia. It is still led by its co-founders, Chris Whelan and Chris Horich. The network spans much of the US and several Canadian provinces. Its fee model is built around a flat monthly network fee rather than a conventional percentage royalty.
Franchisee Support
Initial training through Overtime Athletics University is 6 hours of online coursework and 32 hours of classroom training, delivered mainly online by the co-founders and covering programming, safety, sales, staffing and community marketing. Franchisees receive the Franchise Portal intranet, an operations manual, the OTA curriculum, staff training videos and proprietary software with a coaches' mobile app, plus support by phone, email, webinar and territory visits. Resale buyers should confirm whether OTA University and Franchise Portal access are provided to a new owner on transfer.
Brand Accolades & Awards
Overtime Athletics was named a Top Low-Cost Franchise in Entrepreneur's 2026 Franchise 500 and ranked #37 on Entrepreneur's 2026 list of Top Franchises for Less Than $50,000. Earlier, it appeared on Entrepreneur's Top New Franchises list in 2020 and 2021. Day-to-day reputation is built school by school, so resale buyers should look at parent reviews, partner renewal rates and how the unit is regarded by local districts and recreation departments.
Industry / Market
US demand for organized youth activity is strong. The Afterschool Alliance's 2025 America After 3PM study found 22.6 million children whose parents would enroll them in an afterschool program if one were available, on top of the 7 million already enrolled. Regular sports participation among children aged 6 to 12 reached its highest level since 2015 in 2024 (Sports & Fitness Industry Association), and families spent an average of $1,016 on a child's primary sport that year (Aspen Institute Project Play). For resale buyers, school district vendor rules and local enrollment shape how much of that demand a territory captures.
Ideal Owner
No sports-industry background is required; OTA looks for business management ability and a strong customer-service attitude. The job is mostly B2B selling and relationship upkeep: pitching programs to principals, parent-teacher groups, recreation departments and camp hosts, then keeping those partners renewing. Behind that sits recruiting, scheduling and supervising part-time coaches, plus parent communication. It suits an organized, community-minded owner who enjoys working with children and takes safeguarding seriously. The franchisor does not allow absentee ownership.
