About Pump It Up

We are the franchise you have been looking for! We created the indoor inflatable party center market in 2000 when we moved inflatable recreation from the backyards and fairgrounds into a private indoor party facility in Pleasanton, California. Our franchisees have made us the largest franchise chain in the children's inflatable market. We work with the nation's leading franchise experts and partners in constantly improving on how we do our job. We have created the Pump It Up Birthday Club - an exciting loyalty program. We have our own proprietary inflatables and have engaged our manufacturing partner to create for us new and innovative inflatables to keep our facilities fresh. Our new Pump It Up Jr. and Pump It Up Minis are our latest creations. We have the right concept to delight children and meet the needs of today's busy parents. Our proprietary private, indoor inflatable party facilities provide parents with everything they need to entertain their children and to create memories for a lifetime. We provide an action-packed party environment - even without a special occasion. Join us for a day of discovery at one of the fastest growing franchise opportunities in America. To begin the process, call 1-866-635-0029. After you become more familiar with us, you will likely be invited to join us for Discovery Day in Pleasanton, California (near Oakland, San Jose and San Francisco) where you will meet with us and our team and to ask us questions about us and how you can fit into our franchise family. We interview you and get a sense whether you have the "right stuff" to be a franchisee. We look forward to you becoming a part of the Pump It Up team.

About Kids in Sports

Kids in Sports was started in 1999 in New York City by Michael Strutt and Kenneth Colon whose passion for sports and coaching led them to design programs that teach children ages 12 months to 12 years the fundamentals of sports in a safe, fun, friendly and supportive environment. In addition to the basic rules and skills of sports children learn sportsmanship, teamwork, respect and communication - the building blocks for young athletes. Recently Mike and Kenny - interested in expanding their program - developed their franchise concept. Their goal is to team up with qualified people that will bring the same passion and energy for operating a children's sports program as they always have. Mike and Kenny and their team are managing all support of their franchisees. Kids In Sports is positioned to be a leader in the area of Children's Sports instructional programs and look forward to expanding their successful brand. Today Kids In Sports is a thriving business operating out of a storefront location on New York's Upper East Side, along with several satellite locations. We teach the fundamentals of Baseball, Basketball, Football, Floor Hockey, Lacrosse, Soccer and Volleyball through our Multi-Sport or Sport Specific Classes. We also offer a Pre-School Athletes Program which is a combination of Sports and Education; many of our families use this program as a Pre-School alternative. Additionally Kids in Sports offer weekly camps throughout the summer and Holiday breaks during the year. We also host Birthday Parties and School Picnics The goal is to team up with qualified people that will bring the same passion and energy for operating a children's sports program as they always have.
