Concept Description

Don’t let the fear of quitting your full time job hold you back from living the dream of business ownership!  N Zone Sports offers the opportunity to start part time while you are currently employed and our all in investment is under $75,000. Our most successful franchise owner did exactly that. He now has the largest franchise for our preschool program and he’s a member of our training and support team and he coaches our new owners to do exactly as he’s done!

SERIOUS REVENUE POTENTIAL

  • Junior programs – 10-20 kids per Preschool at $50-65 per month per month – owners may have 5-20+ preschools

IDEAL CANDIDATES – WHO LOVES US:

  • People who want/need flexibility and want to start something on the side while they are still working or wish to jump in full-time, right off the bat
  • People who love sports
  • People who love working with kids
  • Parents of children involved in youth sports currently
  • People who love adding value to their community

We care less about a candidates’ net worth or credit score as long as they are good, decent, coachable people who embrace our values and our culture, are community-minded, love sports/kids and will put in the effort necessary to maximize the opportunity in their area!

This works in big cities and small cities, where there are other sports leagues or areas with very few options for kids. Our top income earners are in Atlanta, GA and Las Cruces, NM – two very different areas.

History:

N Zone Sports started in 2008 and was born out of the need for a better sports league than was available in the Tampa, FL market. Due to his experience in franchising, Tony Westbrock decided to share his sports league concept with the world through the N Zone Sports Franchise offering! It has slowly developed into both weekday and weekend sports offerings for youth, adults and all members of the community. With multiple revenue streams, the concept offers those seeking an exciting business away from the corporate 9 to 5 grind a fulfilling, lucrative opportunity. Franchise owners can start part time or dive in full time as unlimited support and coaching is provided to both.

Dana Hansen and Tony Westbrock have been friends since 2001, worked together 8 years previously. Dana Hansen joined N Zone Sports in March of 2024 after he was offered an equity stake in the company and the position of President. Dana has built other brands including College Hunks Hauling Junk & Moving. Dana’s goal is to build the brand to 250 franchise owners in 5 years.
