## Story

BabyBallers has announced the successful opening of its first franchise location in Geelong, Victoria as a part of an effort to open in Australia and New Zealand. With the opening of this new location, BabyBallers now operates in the U.K., Northern Ireland, Belgium, France and Australia.

The franchisee for the Geelong location are Brent and Ashleigh, who wanted to make a change in their careers.

“We are very excited to be the very first Baby Ballers in Australia. We can’t wait to see franchises pop up all over Australia and help build a well-known brand in Australia,” said Brent.

“I had been looking for something similar for my soccer-obsessed 4-year-old son Luke. We stumbled upon an ad for BabyBallers franchises opening in Australia. After some careful inquiry and research, I absolutely loved the business model and think it can be very successful in Australia.”

The franchise brand has partnered with DC Strategy to develop its expansion plans, and legal requirements, as well as driving lead generation and franchise sales. The brand has plans to open over 200 clubs across Australia and New Zealand.

BabyBallers offers an inexpensive franchise opportunity that capitalizes on the increased awareness around children’s healthy development.

“DC Strategy specializes in launching global brands in Australasia and Asia. BabyBallers have been fantastic to work with and bring so much value to their franchisees,” said James Young, director of franchise sales at DC Strategy.

“It’s exciting to assist them in launching with an amazing first franchise partner and the couple from Geelong have hit the ground running. We are also now in the final stages of securing their first New Zealand partner with many further franchisees to follow in both markets”.
