Soccer 5 is a leading small-sided soccer center franchise, offering state-of-the-art 5v5, 6v6, and 7v7 soccer fields designed for recreational and competitive play. Originally introduced in the UK, small-sided soccer has become one of the most popular variations of the sport worldwide. Founded in 2010, Soccer 5 has spent over a decade designing and operating high-quality soccer centers, primarily in Miami, Florida, through partnerships with public parks. In 2024, the brand began franchising, bringing its proven model to new markets across the U.S. Soccer 5 facilities cater to a diverse range of players, from children as young as 3 to adults 65+, providing a premier soccer experience in outdoor parks, commercial spaces, or indoor warehouse facilities.
Franchisees benefit from a scalable, multi-revenue stream business model that includes field rentals, youth academies, leagues, tournaments, corporate events, and concession sales. With an owner-operator or executive model, franchisees can be hands-on or manage operations through a team. Soccer 5 centers operate during peak hours (typically evenings and weekends), generating recurring revenue from dedicated players and leagues. The business is supported by strategic real estate and construction partnerships, ensuring site selection and facility development are seamless. Franchisees receive extensive operational and marketing support, along with access to proprietary management systems to streamline reservations, membership sales, and field maintenance.
Soccer 5 is an ideal franchise for soccer enthusiasts, business professionals, and multi-unit investors looking for a scalable and community-driven business. Strong leadership, project management, and problem-solving skills are essential for success. While prior experience in soccer is not required, an understanding of team management, customer service, and local networking will help franchisees grow their locations. With high market demand and limited competition in the franchising space, Soccer 5 offers a unique opportunity for individuals looking to invest in the future of small-sided soccer in the U.S.
