Why Open A 2nd Time Sports Store?

The Only Retail Franchise Of It's Kind With In-Store And Online Sales!

2nd Time Sports is a community based used and new sporting goods store with in-store AND ONLINE SALES giving us a nationwide playing field. Being a proud member of the local community, we support our local teams, leagues, athletes and individuals by providing them with quality used and new sports gear and fitness equipment. The primary theme in our store is to always provide better than what is expected by our customers. This makes happy, loyal customers that eagerly support us. We have in-store services such as bike repair, golf club re-gripping, bat re-gripping, skate sharpening, ski waxing, custom uniforms and more. Not only does our online store and service centers make us stand apart from any other online resale, but we also have a proprietary cleaning and sanitizing system that kills 99.98% of bacteria, fungus and viruses, removes the odors and grime from the previous owner making it much healthier and enjoyable to buy used equipment, again putting us far above customer’s expectations. We are experts in making loyal, returning customers with strong word of mouth growth!

Our point of sale system links our inventory to our online store making selling in-store and online seamless, headache free and fast! Some highlights of our point of sale software include customer database, text messaging promotion programs, “wanted items” text messages for customers looking for items not yet in store, inventory management, business reports and more. Our franchisees enjoy system support 7 days a week!

Coaching Goes A Long Way — We're Rooting For You!

Our goal in establishing franchises is to see them prosper and flourish. We truly care about each of our franchisees, and we want them to know we’ve got their backs. That’s what makes us a great team — we know that none of us can do as well alone than we can do all together. With us as your professional trainer and coach, you can reach your potential.

There Are No Stupid Questions.

If you have a question, we’ll give you the answer. You’ll have access to our corporate team, who can advise you in any aspect of your 2nd Time Sports franchise business.

Getting Started

We are committed to providing our franchisees with the training and assistance that they need to succeed. After you sign your franchise deal, you’ll receive our confidential operations manual to learn about our operations and computer systems.

Training begins in the coach’s classroom at our headquarters in Dunedin, Fl where we combine classroom and “on the job” training at the model store- just around the corner. Your training will be extensive from covering operations, including equipment operation; advertising, promotions, customer service, and safety. You’ll also become familiarized with the proper procedures for opening and closing, buying and pricing, and inventory control. You will learn many of the services you will be delivering in the service center in your store. You will have POS system training done by the experts themselves and meet many of the individuals who will be personally assisting you with anything “Point of Sale”. During your grand opening, we’ll be on-site at your store for 5 to 10 days of training to ensure everything gets up and running smoothly.

Are You A First Draft Pick For 2nd Time?

The ideal candidate for a 2nd Time Sports Franchisee falls into two categories: sports lovers with some business knowledge, or a businessperson with some sports knowledge. If you are a sports lover you must be willing and able to understand how to run the business. Your love of sports will likely never die but if you don't know the rules of the game of business you will have a difficult time! We will teach you the rules you must follow!

The perfect person to run a 2nd Time Sports franchise loves sports and business, exudes trust and integrity, and has a strong work ethic with a high energy level. He or she is a community or business leader, and has a well-respected image in the community. It also helps if the person has connections to local sports teams or activity networks, and has an active personal lifestyle, as well.
