Microsport has been successfully and profitably running classes in south east London since 1990 and in order to expand our territory we are offering the opportunity to successful applicants of running their own business, operating Microsport classes according to our tried & tested formula. With the success of London's Olympic bid, and international successes in various sporting disciplines we expect interest in childrens'  sport to be greater than ever.

We would expect potential Microsport franchisees to be attracted by the challenge of controlling their own business, working with young children and organising their timetable to suit their own circumstances with strong support and training from the team at Head Office (teaching formats and guidance in every aspect of the business will be provided by us). We envisage, for example, that a Microsport franchise might appeal to parents of young children who might wish to return to work but want the flexibility that this opportunity provides. Our classes are run during school term times and you can therefore organise your time without compromising the family.

A qualification or experience in teaching and/or sports coaching is not essential, but would be an ideal background from which to start. We have our own training programme and we would expect potential franchisees to come from a variety of working backgrounds.

Ideal qualities for a Microsport franchisee are:

• Enthusiasm
• Motivation
• Commitment
• Confidence
• Intelligence
• Fitness, energy and good health
• Good interpersonal skills for relating not only to children, but also to staff and parents
• Management and organisational skills
• Last, but definitely not least, a sense of fun and an empathy with children
