Their Story

From Auckland to Werribee — And a Business Nobody Saw Coming

In 2022, Miguel and Roxanne packed up their lives in Auckland, New Zealand and moved to Melbourne with two young kids and a list of goals. Buy a house. Get stable work. Build something that gives them their time back. They ticked off the house in 2025. Then they started looking for the business.

They went to a franchise expo. They got rushed, pressured with "limited spots" and first-year income guarantees that didn't add up. Miguel was working shift work at a casino — five, sometimes six days straight. Roxanne was managing government community projects. Neither of them had time to waste on the wrong opportunity.

"What stood out was the transparency. It's always up to the franchisee — how much they perform, how hard they work. No fake guarantees. That's what sold us."

— Miguel

They found Little Boomers Basketball through an Instagram ad. Roxanne screenshotted it and sent it to Miguel. After watching the videos, reading the reviews, and going through a proper discovery process — founder included — they knew it was different. Transparent. Honest about the challenges. And built around exactly the kind of life they were trying to create.

They did the 3-day Test Before You Invest, signed the agreement, and within three weeks were already calling schools to lock in venues across Werribee.

"I emailed several schools that night. By the next morning, one had already replied — Saturdays and Sundays were free. That was our first venue."

— Roxanne

The Opportunity In Victoria

Basketball Is The Fastest-Growing Kids Sport In Australia

The numbers below aren’t hype. They’re why new Little Boomers territories across Victoria are filling up fast — and why the franchisees moving now have a genuine head start.

1.2M+

Registered Basketball Players in Australia

Basketball Australia ranks it as the country’s #2 most participated team sport.

37%

Growth in Junior Participation (Last 5 Years)

Junior basketball registrations have grown faster than any other major team sport in Australia since 2019.

400K+

Kids Under 12 in Greater Melbourne

Melbourne is one of Australia’s youngest cities by demographic. The demand for quality kids’ sport programs is only growing.

Sport Kids Ask to Try First

In multiple surveys, basketball consistently ranks as the sport kids aged 3–8 most want to try — ahead of soccer, swimming, and AFL.

The parents are already looking for this. Miguel and Roxanne didn’t have to convince Werribee families that basketball was worth doing — they just had to show up, run great sessions, and let the sport sell itself. That’s the reality of operating in a market with this much built-in demand.

RECESSION-RESISTANT BY NATURE

Before you invest in any business, ask yourself this one question.

Will people still pay for this when times get tough?

It's the right question to ask. And for Little Boomers Basketball, the answer is yes — because kids sport isn't a luxury in Australian family life. It's a weekly routine. It's development parents can see. It's the one hour their child looks forward to all week.

When budgets tighten, families cut subscriptions, dining out, and one-off experiences. They don't cut the things that matter to their kids. A structured, fun, skills-based program that gets their child active and social every single week? That stays on the calendar.

That's the kind of business worth investing in — one that delivers real value to families in your community, whether the economy is booming or not.

The System Behind the Result

How Miguel & Roxanne Did It — Step by Step

Attended a Test Before You Invest Session

Before they signed anything, Miguel and Roxanne came and watched a real Little Boomers session live. No PDFs. No Zoom calls. Just the real thing. They saw the kids, the coaches, and the whole operation up close. That was the moment they knew. Every serious prospect gets the same opportunity.

Signed the Franchise Agreement

They committed to the opportunity, secured their exclusive territory in Werribee, and became part of the Little Boomers Basketball network.

Secured Their First Venue

Working alongside head office, they identified and locked in the right local venue to host their first season of sessions — a P–12 school with weekends available.

Head Office Launched an Online Marketing Campaign

Head office ran a digital campaign across Werribee before the first session even kicked off — so by the time Miguel and Roxanne hit the court, people already knew who they were.

Franchisee Activated Their Local Community

Miguel and Roxanne got out into the community — talking to parents at school gates, reaching out to local groups, and converting curiosity into actual sign-ups.

Recruited and Trained Their Coaching Team

They recruited and trained their coaches using Little Boomers Basketball’s coaching framework — so every session was fun, structured, and something kids actually wanted to come back to.

Delivered and Grew

They got on the court and ran the sessions. Werribee parents noticed. Word spread. By the end of Term 1: 100 kids enrolled.

Week-by-Week Breakdown

How the Numbers Grew

Week 3

First sessions running. Six kids through the door — parents who saw the campaign and moved quickly. It wasn’t a huge number, but it was real and it was theirs.

Week 7

Local outreach starts paying off. Miguel and Roxanne are out in the community — talking to parents, building school connections, and getting the word out. Word of mouth kicks in.

Week 9

A big jump. Community buzz is real now. Parents are telling other parents. A second session is added to handle the demand. The program is building a reputation in Werribee.

Week 15

Final enrolment for Term 1: 100 kids. Miguel still working. Roxanne still working. Their first child enrolled. Their second not yet old enough. But the business is already outgrowing expectations.

But for Miguel and Roxanne, the number that matters most isn’t 100. It’s the kids who walk off that court every Saturday with a little more confidence than they walked on with. That’s the part you can’t put in a spreadsheet.

Common Questions

What Most People Want to Know First

How much does it cost to get started?

The investment covers your franchise fee, territory rights, full training, marketing launch support, and all the equipment you need to get started. The exact number is something we go through on your Discovery Call — we’d rather explain it properly than throw a number at you cold. Book a free 15-minute call to get the full picture.

Do I need to have all the money upfront?

No. We work with lending partners who specialise in franchise finance. You don’t need the full amount in cash to get started. We walk you through what’s available on your Discovery Call — most people are surprised by what’s possible.

Do I need to rent a space or buy equipment upfront?

No shop lease. No premises to buy. No stock sitting on a shelf. LBB runs out of school halls and community spaces — you pay per session, not per year. Low overhead is part of the design, and it’s one of the reasons franchisees can get their money back faster than most business models. The investment covers your franchise fee, territory, full training, and the equipment you need to run your sessions.

Can I grow beyond one territory?

Yes. Some franchisees start with one territory and grow from there. The system is built to scale — once your first territory is running well, adding a second becomes a natural next step. You're building an asset, not just buying a job.

How do I find coaches and venues?

Head office guides you through identifying and locking in venues from day one. We also walk you through building your coaching team — you don't figure that out alone. It's all part of the onboarding process.

Do I start with existing customers or from scratch?

You're not starting from zero. When you launch, head office runs a digital marketing campaign across your territory before your first session even kicks off. By the time you hit the court, families in your area already know who you are.

How long until I make my money back?

Most franchisees get their investment back within 6 to 18 months — it depends on your area, how much effort you put in, and how fast you grow. What Miguel and Roxanne did in Term 1 is a real example of what’s possible when you follow the system.

Do I need basketball, coaching, or business experience?

No. You don’t need a basketball background, coaching experience, or a business degree. We train you on everything. What actually matters is that you enjoy working with kids, you’re prepared to put in the work, and you’re willing to follow a proven system.

Do I need to quit my full-time job?

No — and this is one of the things that makes Little Boomers Basketball different. Many of our franchisees run their franchise alongside existing work, at least in the beginning. The sessions are structured to fit around your life, not the other way around.

How does head office support me?

From day one, head office handles your digital marketing campaign, provides full operational training, gives you access to a proven coaching curriculum, and supports you with ongoing business coaching. You’re in business for yourself, but never by yourself.
