Who is our guest?
Ben Hazeldine is a passionate entrepreneur and respected leader in the children’s sports coaching sector. Inspired by his parents, both athletes and educators, Ben combined his love for sports with a commitment to education to launch Future Stars Coaching in 2009. His vision is to provide high-quality, engaging sports education for children.
Since then, Ben has grown the business into a thriving franchise network, with 14 territories now delivering activities to over 25,000 children every week. His innovative approach includes developing training programmes for PE teachers, raising the standard of school sports provision, and building strong partnerships with schools and community clubs.
Ben’s ability to spot opportunities and adapt—whether by embracing new funding models or using modern marketing strategies—has been key to his success. His leadership style centres on clear expectations, high standards, and supporting others to grow.
