Working with park districts, YMCAs, day care centers, after school programs, and any indoor/outdoor venues with enough space, this well-established and well-publicized business provides specialized sports tutoring to children between the ages of 3 to 10 in tennis, nerf football, soccer, golf, T-Ball, and basketball. Lessons are provided to children with and without disabilities. In addition to children's classes, this "school without walls" provides combined parent/child lessons and allows parents to spend quality time with their children between the ages of 3 and 5. A new one-on-one program has been added and is specifically designed for children with disabilities.

The advantage of instruction through this business is that it is not limited to teaching on standard-sized courts or fields. The result is that a broader audience is reached. Currently, instruction is offered at over 50 locations in 45 Chicagoland districts. This business would be a great business for someone with a sports education background or interests. It also is a very complementary business for an existing business that offers some type of instruction. This makes a good starter business for the first-time business owner who wants to keep overhead low.

One of the keys to the success of this business is that the marketing responsibility is passed onto the respective communities, freeing up the owner to run the business. The seller does not need to handle registration either, since the respective park district also does that. Everyone feels good about programs such as this that reach so many children and that enable them to learn sports that they might not have been exposed do. As such, the media is apt to provide free coverage of the business. ABC, NBC, CNN, the Chicago Tribune, national magazines, and local publications have covered it.
