Hear It From other Franchisees
“I absolutely love what I do. I knew the potential and I just thought, this is the perfect fit. I could be in an industry that I love, I could coach kids and be in the football environment. It gave me the platform to be successful financially.”
Anthony
“Started off by putting my son in classes and really seeing the journey that he went through, thriving under the program with the coaches. That got me, as a soccer fan, thinking I can do this.”
Matt
“I’ve always loved sport. As a mum with two young children, I love seeing my kids active. So owning a business that combines these two passions together has allowed me to achieve many things personally and professionally.”

Everything shared with me during my initial discovery process regarding business support, streamlined systems, and program quality has helped me reach 200 kids within the first 4 months of operations.”

Franchisee FAQs
Meet Our Founder
“In 2007 I observed 3-5 years olds watching their older siblings play local weekend sports, eager to get on the field. I realised that children under five had no opportunity to learn and explore the fundamental skills of football. And so I opened Soccajoeys: Australia’s first preschool soccer program in the St George area of Sydney. I’ve always had a passion for early childhood development and sport, and dreamed of running my own business. After a short time I began to realise there was an opportunity to help others who shared the same goals. As the founder of Soccajoeys, it’s really satisfying to know that every single day, thousands of kids are getting the best possible start to an active life, and our franchisees are reaching their financial and life goals. Supporting our franchise community is at the heart of everything we do at Soccajoeys, and I believe that’s what continues to drive our combined success.” Stacy Alogdellis, Founder
