Franchise News Release: Tampa, Fl - (Aug-27-2003)


Recreational sports company set for U.S. launch


Kids often grow up dreaming of becoming sports heroes. Although many dreams are left unfulfilled in youth, more and more adults are continuing their dreams through recreational sports. i9 Sports, a successful recreational sports company for adults and youth, looks to cultivate those childhood dreams by offering sports programs for all ages.

According to the National Sporting Goods Association (NSGA), there are well over 100 million youth and adults in the U.S. participating in sports annually. i9 Sports offers entrepreneurs an innovative way to generate income by operating the sports they love. "We're offering a unique Franchising opportunity that takes America's favorite past-times and turns them into an innovative home-based business" said Franchise Development Director Nadine Fiume.

i9 Sports began as the vision of Founder/CEO Frank V Fiume. As a member of local adult sports leagues in his native New York, Fiume became frustrated by the lack of organization and professionalism of the existing leagues. Rather than deal with these inadequacies, Fiume hung up his cleats and decided to build a business that made sports fun again.

In 1995, i9 Sports (known in New York as ABA Sports) was founded on Long Island, and began with 35 teams in an adult softball league. Since then, ABA Sports has become the largest adult recreational organization on Long Island, with over 800 teams and 10,000 members.

After the success of the local league began to grow, Fiume began to realize the power of his dream. The potential was great to bring a successful, well run organization to sports enthusiasts everywhere. Thus, the i9 Sports franchise.

i9 franchise owners have the option to own and operate Leagues, Tournaments, Camps, & Clinics for youth or adults in a wide variety of sports.

Owners generate revenue from multiple sources, including: team/player entry fees, the sale of retail sporting goods, customized uniforms, corporate sponsorships, and special events.

i9 SportsSM is currently responding to hundreds of inquiries from its website that have expressed interest in operating locations which is expected to be awarded within the next 3-6 months.

i9 Sports Corporation (Tampa, FL) was founded in 2002 by Frank V. Fiume as a National Sports & Recreation Franchise whose objective is to provide communities with quality, professionally organized venues for amateur sports enthusiasts of all ages. Each i9 SportsSM Franchise is individually owned and operated by sports enthusiasts to host Leagues, Tournaments, Camps, Clinics, & Special Events in 17 Sports in an exclusive territory utilizing nationally recognized sanctioning body rules with i9 Sports comprehensive training, guidance, and on-going local support. i9 Sports is a proud member of the National Recreation & Parks Association (NRPA), National Intramural-Recreational Sports Association (NIRSA), National Sporting Goods Association (NSGA), Sportsplex Operators & Developers Association (SODA), & the International Franchise Association (IFA).
