I9 Sports, the nation’s largest youth sports league franchise, awarded six franchise territories across the East Coast, bringing its unique concept to Boca Raton and Orlando, FL; Richmond, VA; and Baltimore, MD.

I9 Sports welcomed in 2017 new franchisees Brandon Seeley, Antwain Salvatto and Joseph Jackson, Nisa and Meshack Aduwu, and Alli and Greg Hall. Each of the franchise locations will operate independently while maintaining I9 Sports’ business system.

“As I9 Sports continues in its mission to help kids succeed in life through sports, it’s incredibly important to identify and select franchise partners who are committed to the culture of age-appropriate instruction that’s fun for kids and convenient for parents in their territories,” said Brian Sanders, I9 Sports president and chief executive officer. “We know that each of these franchise owners are committed to delivering that superior and extraordinary experience.”

I9 Sports currently operates more than 750 territories across the U.S., from New York to Hawaii, with more than 1.4 million players participating in leagues, camps and clinics in today’s most popular team sports.
