The brand offers sports-based camps, after-school programs, classes and leagues for children, including baseball, basketball, flag football, soccer, volleyball, tennis, golf, cheerleading, track and field, and lacrosse.How Many Skyhawks Sports Academy Locations Are There?In 1979, Skyhawks Sports Academy was founded in Spokane, Washington after the founders recognized that children of varying athletic levels did not have the same opportunity to learn sport-specific skills as serious players or elite young athletes. Many of these children aspired to be better players. Unfortunately, they did not have the best setting in which to learn sport-specific skills, have fun, be safe, and/or take those lessons home and apply them to their everyday lives. Skyhawks had a vision that every child should experience the joy and benefits of sports with a stated purpose for the company: “Teaching life skills through sports.” As the years passed, Skyhawks added more sports and more safe, fun and skill-focused camps for sports like basketball, flag football, volleyball and baseball.Skyhawks Sports Academy started franchising in 2007.

The demand for after-school, evening, weekend and holiday programs has never been higher.How Much Can Skyhawks Sports Academy Franchise Owners Make?According to BizBuySell, the average unit revenue for the 129 Skyhawks units in operation for the year of 2021 was $205,780.How Much Does It Cost to Open a Skyhawks Sports Academy?The following costs are excerpted from the Skyhawks Franchise Group Franchise Disclosure Document and are estimated.
