Soccer 5
Youth servicesSoftware purchasing at Soccer 5 is controlled at the headquarters level, where President Scott Georgeson and Director of Operations Walter Subia Rodriquez are key contacts. The franchise currently mandates Pitchbooking Software for its operations. With 6 company-owned units and an undisclosed number of franchised locations, the addressable market is small but concentrated, making a direct HQ pitch the most viable strategy.

The vendor opportunity at Soccer 5
Soccer 5 is a youth services franchise headquartered in Florida. According to its 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the system consists of 6 total units, all of which are company-owned. The number of franchised units is not disclosed in the filing. For a software vendor, this represents a small, concentrated target. The entire system is controlled from a single headquarters, meaning a direct sales motion to the executive team is the only practical route to adoption. There is no distributed operator footprint to sell into individually.
Who controls software purchasing
The FDD’s Item 1 lists the key executives at Soccer 5. The primary decision-makers for a software pitch are Scott Georgeson, the President, and Walter Subia Rodriquez, the Director of Operations. For tools related to youth programming, Dario Figueroa, the Director of Youth Programming, is likely a key influencer or budget holder. Jack Georgeson, the Director of Franchise Development, and Alan Georgeson, Co-Founder and Chairman, round out the leadership team. With no franchisee operators mapped in our corpus, all purchasing authority is concentrated at this HQ level.
Mandated and current tech stack
Soccer 5 mandates one specific technology platform for its operations: Pitchbooking Software. This is the only system named in the FDD’s technology requirements. The mandate means that any competing scheduling, booking, or facility-management software would need to displace an incumbent that is contractually required for franchisees. Conversely, vendors offering complementary tools—such as CRM, payment processing, or staff management—that integrate with Pitchbooking may find a receptive audience, as the FDD does not list any other mandated or recommended systems.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
The FDD does not include an extract for Item 8, which typically details procurement restrictions and designated suppliers. This leaves the formal procurement model unknown. However, the renewal terms in Item 17 provide a clear timing signal. Franchise agreements run for an initial term of 10 years. To renew, a franchisee must provide written notice at least 180 days before expiration, pay a $10,000 renewal fee, and sign the then-current franchise agreement. This 180-day window before a term expiration is a natural point when operators—and the franchisor—are contractually required to review and potentially upgrade their hardware and software to meet current standards.
How to read the Soccer 5 FDD
The 2025 Soccer 5 Franchise Disclosure Document is the foundational research tool for any vendor evaluating this account. It confirms the 7.0% royalty rate, the 10-year initial term, and the identities of the five HQ executives who control purchasing. The full PDF is embedded below for your review. Use it to verify the mandated Pitchbooking Software requirement and to prepare a pitch that speaks directly to the operational priorities of Scott Georgeson and Walter Subia Rodriquez.
