How to build youth league!

[Guest]

Hi, This is my first time posting and I'm need help to market for this falls youth league. I'm concerned that I might not have as many teams as I did last fall. I was thinking about getting involved with the schools sports sign up at the beginning of the school year. Other than that where could I get kids attention (as well as the parents) for a bowling league.

Pee wee football is huge

You could have some success having a party for the local soccer assoc.

Then you can start your Youth leagues after soccer / pee wee football is over about 11/1

That is what I did about 4 years ago after the Sept - April league folded

We use our data base from the Kids Bowl Free summer progam. Which is the whole point of it...1500+ signed up so far this year.

That! is the $64,000 question.

This program is a MUST DO!

This program pays for itself if done right, and adds 1000 VALID email addresses of customers that have already been in your center.

He also was a major coach/organizer in the youth baseball program and sponsored a couple teams.


We are extremely lucky to have these folks,
