About Premier Sport
The company was founded in 1999 by David Batch, filling a gap in the market for high quality, branded sports provision for local children, parents and schools.
Premier Sport embarked on a franchising strategy within its first year, acquiring it’s first competitor in 2002.
Since then, the number of franchised territories has risen to over 90, with a significant rise since 2007 (up from 27), and more current applications for franchises than ever before.
Premier Sport is the first ever commercial organisation in the market place to gain ‘QiSS’ status (Quality in Study Support) for excellence.
Since 1999, we have developed the largest support network for franchisees in the industry.
