Soccer Buddies franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: Soccer Buddies does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for Soccer Buddies — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing; the fees, litigation and outlet churn Soccer Buddies's FDD does contain are on this page. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Other franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.
Soccer Buddies lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
We do not publish a litigation answer for Soccer Buddies. Item 3 could not be read reliably from this particular filing, and a claim that a company has no legal history is not one to make on a failed parse — so we say we do not know instead. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check; the methodology page explains what we do and do not machine-read.
Soccer Buddies closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Soccer Buddies will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Soccer Buddies's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a franchise of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Soccer Buddies's outlet tables did not machine-read cleanly; Item 20 of the source FDD has them.
Who owns Soccer Buddies?
Soccer Buddies's franchise is offered by Soccer Buddies Franchising Cop — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at WI DFI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.

Soccer Buddies franchise — frequently asked
Who owns Soccer Buddies — who is the franchisor?
Soccer Buddies's most recently filed FDD (2026) names Soccer Buddies Franchising Cop as the franchisor — the entity you would actually sign the franchise agreement with, as stated on the disclosure document itself. A registry filing names the franchisor, not necessarily its ultimate parent company.
How much does a Soccer Buddies franchise cost?
Soccer Buddies's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at $119,000 – $153,500, with an initial franchise fee of $49,500 and a 8% royalty. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote. Against category peers it sits in the upper quartile (median $227,750).
How much profit does a Soccer Buddies franchise make?
Soccer Buddies makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-disclosed revenue or profit figure for Soccer Buddies at all — and profit would never be disclosed even where earnings are, because it depends on your rent, labor and how you operate. Any profit figure quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure.
Does Soccer Buddies disclose financial performance (Item 19)?
No — Soccer Buddies's most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation. Its absence is worth weighing.
Are there lawsuits against Soccer Buddies?
We do not publish a litigation answer for Soccer Buddies: Item 3 could not be read reliably from this filing, and we would rather say so than assert a clean record we have not verified. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check.
Is Soccer Buddies a good franchise to buy?
Nobody can answer that from Soccer Buddies's numbers alone — it comes down to how its investment, earnings, litigation and franchisee churn stack up against category peers and against your own budget. Our read on this filing is medium risk. Every figure behind that read is on this page for free. If you're comparing options, the free shortlist on this page matches you with 5–10 franchises that fit your budget and industry.
