About
Soccer Shots is a children’s soccer program where kids practice age-appropriate soccer skills, including dribbling, passing, and shooting. The program includes competitive play, team competitions, and activities such as songs and fun games. Sessions take place in a setting referred to as Soccer Island, which is used for the program.
• Ages: 18 months–8 years old
• Schedule: Programs are offered in multiple levels, including MINI (Toddler), CLASSIC (Preschool), and PREMIER (School-Age)
Soccer Shots was formed in 1997 and began franchising in 2005, opening its first four franchises in Ohio, Delaware, Florida, and Pennsylvania. From its beginnings, it has grown to over 300 territories across 43 states and 2 Canadian provinces, with over 560,000 enrollments in 2023. Soccer Shots Franchising, LLC is based in central Pennsylvania, just east of Harrisburg. The founding partners are Jeremy Sorzano and Jason Webb, and in May 2009, Justin Bredeman became the third partner.
Every Soccer Shots coach must complete a comprehensive training program to receive certification, and all coaches are trained in the use of developmentally appropriate techniques. Coaches are routinely evaluated and take part in ongoing training. The curriculum is expert-designed, developmentally appropriate, and aligns with early childhood education standards. It is created under the guidance of childhood education specialists, professional soccer players, and experienced and licensed soccer coaches. Sessions highlight a positive character trait each time, such as respect, teamwork, and appreciation. The program uses songs, fun games, and positive reinforcement, and the curriculum for school-aged children builds on skills and introduces competitive play.
Soccer Shots states its mission as aiming to positively impact children’s lives as the premier children’s soccer experience. It is consistently recognized by Entrepreneur Magazine as the #1 Children’s Fitness Franchise in the U.S. Through partnerships with the U.S. Soccer Foundation, Nike, and other organizations, Soccer Shots aims to impact children and communities across the U.S. and the world.
Parent testimonials mention children learning soccer skills, taking turns, independence, and how to cheer for others, and describe the coaches and program as organized and engaging. Parents from locations including Kalamazoo (MI), Phoenix (AZ), Dallas (TX), and San Diego (CA) report seeing growth in their children and express positive feedback about the instructors and coaches.
