FAQs

Common questions about our football coaching franchise

Do I need coaching experience?

While prior coaching experience is helpful, it's not mandatory. We provide comprehensive training to help you succeed.

Can I run the franchise part-time?

No. A We Make Footballers franchise requires a full-time commitment, with you personally managing the business. Where the franchisee is a company, its Operating Principal or a trained manager must manage the business at all times.

What's included in the franchise fee?

Training, marketing support, a defined local territory, digital tools, and ongoing business guidance are all included.

How long does it take to launch?

Typically, you can launch your franchise within 3-6 months, depending on your local market and preparation.

How does funding work?

Financing is available, subject to approval, for up to 50% of the initial franchise fee over three years, with a $4,000 financing charge.
