THE NEXT DIMENSION IN SPORTS, FUN AND FITNESS

Finally, recreation has been taken to new heights! Introducing Sky Zone Recreational Centers. We are the organization behind the world’s first patented, all-trampoline, walled playing fields, offering people of all ages an array of exciting opportunities for fun, fitness, sports and entertainment.

Sky Zone was founded in 2002. After an ingenious system of interlocking super-resilient trampolines was invented, we gathered a team of experts – including top engineers, welders and carpenters to build the first Sky Zone playing field courts. The design is so unparalleled, it was awarded a U.S. patent! Today, with tremendous national and local media coverage and hundreds of thousands of people enjoying the Sky Zone experience, and through our affiliated companies, we currently operate locations in California, Missouri and Nevada. Because of our enormous popularity, we are looking to expand our operations to select new markets.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO JUMP INTO A FANTASTIC BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY? Sky Zone Recreational Center franchises are offered through Sky Zone Franchise Group, LLC, which is licensed to sell and offer franchises by its affiliate, Sky Zone, LLC. Would you like to jump into a fantastic business opportunity? We are inviting you to join the Sky Zone network, by becoming one of our franchise owners. Sky Zone occupies an incredibly unique niche, within the growing recreation and fitness industry. Over the years, we’ve been meticulously researching, testing and perfecting our operating structure. Now we’re ready to share key business details with you – from solid safety measures and a wide variety of exciting games, sports and fitness activities, to court construction, innovative marketing and advertising programs, the latest technologies, experienced leadership and more.

If you’re an active, high-energy kind of person who’d like to leap into an awesome future, turn the page. It’s your chance to find out more about this fantastic, one-of-a-kind opportunity!

Sincerely, The Sky Zone Team
