Executive Summary

The Skate Zone has been formed to implement inline skate hockey services. The Skate Zone is a Miami-based company whose mission is to promote the sport of hockey and make it available to all.  

The company’s initial strategy is to promote and facilitate one of the country’s fastest growing sports leagues, Roller Hockey.

The company’s goal is to provide a professional and safe environment for inline hockey, with added support to provide entertainment and physical fitness for players all ages. In conjunction with the hockey rink, a snack bar will enable players and patrons to enjoy food and drink during games and practices. Further endeavors will include bringing inline hockey products such as skates, body protection equipment, sticks, and jerseys with team logos into an in-house Pro Shop.

The company anticipates it will generate income from these specific areas:

  • Registration fees. Person(s) who will be playing hockey will be required to pay a seasonal fee to play in the league.
  • Concessions and equipment. Earnings received for food and drink items. Future endeavors are to have certain equipment for sale that players can utilize for sports activities.
  • Special functions. Miscellaneous use for the rink that payment will be received for operational expenses deemed necessary.

Products and Services

League Fees
A person who will be involved in a practice or game will be subject to fill out an application form and pay a fee that will enable them to participate for one season of inline hockey. This fee will be broken down to pay charges incurred to USA Hockey Inline for insurance and regulatory practices. The application form that the individual will fill out will be utilized for databases to create marketing statistics and mailings for future enrollment.

The advantages to each person completing this form is to properly identify players, coaches, and referees. The idea of proper identification is to insure all players, coaches, and referees are taught and acknowledge the rules and regulations to guarantee safety requirements are met. The databases that are created will not only help in classifying each person, but will cut cost in future enrollment and placement.

Concessions
The snack bar is an essential part of the entertainment and recreation industry. Concessions are considered one of the principal revenues, and will be key in providing maximum returns for the investor. There are varying degrees of concessions that can be offered. With modern technology, food items have become easier to prepare and serve without having the huge expense of kitchen appliances. This will allow The Skate Zone to offer a variety of foods and snacks without having certain licenses required to operate dining establishments.

The advantages to customers will be the convenience to purchase food and drinks without having to leave the establishment during any athletic event they are involved in. Some items that will be available to the public will include hotdogs, hamburgers, nachos, popcorn, candy, and tonic.

Professional Hockey Shop
The Skate Zone plans to respond to market needs with the addition of products customers can purchase. The company believes this operation will allow expedient access to merchandise both players and patrons require to enjoy optimum participation. This will also be considered another prevalent source of revenue to acquire maximum returns for the investor. Introduction of this service is expected to be within one year from the start of business.

Competitive Comparison

Competitive threats come from roller skating rinks and ice skating rinks. These companies are scattered throughout Miami.

Competitive Edge

The Skate Zone’s competitive advantages is its arena designed exclusively for inline hockey. Its size, dasher boards, and flooring give it the realism of true hockey play. Safety is considered priority one when insuring players and patrons are protected from injury or dangers. This is why The Skate Zone is taking every precaution in building a facility that centers itself on the sport of inline hockey.

The Skate Zone’s competitive advantages also include location and in-house facility. The company took demographics and several marketing strategies to find a location that showed prominent customers of all categories and potential growth in the future. The in-house playing field will allow comfortable play during all seasons without interruptions from rain, snow, sun, cold, or ice.

Strategy and Implementation Summary

The Skate Zone plans to promote and facilitate one of this country’s fastest growing sport leagues, Roller Hockey. The intended market is individuals who desire to participate in a fast action, high intensity game of team players with determination to dominate and control the athletic field with sticks and a puck. Markets include children and young adults from the ages 8 to 18 years old. One of the prime objectives the company intends to project is a family environment with player’s parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, and grandparents alike contributing to the market as a whole. Other target markets include adults, ages 19 to 55 years old, for a competitive recreation activity.

Marketing Communications

The Skate Zone plans to be the first amateur inline hockey facility in Miami, Florida. Due to the overwhelming growth of inline hockey throughout the United States, the company’s promotional plans are open to various media and a range of marketing communications. The following is a list of those available presently.

Public relations. Press releases are issued to both technical trade journals and major business publications such as USAHockey Inline, INLINE the skate magazine, PowerPlay, and others.

Tournaments. The Skate Zone will represent its services at championship tournaments that are held annually across the United States.

Print advertising and article publishing. The company’s print advertising program includes advertisements in The Yellow Pages, Miami Express News, The Skate Zone Mailing, school flyers, and inline hockey trade magazines.

Internet. The Skate Zone currently has a website and has received several inquiries from it. Plans are underway to upgrade it to a more professional and effective site.  In the future, this is expected to be one of the company’s primary marketing channels.

Distribution Strategy

At The Skate Zone, the sales process is different for each of the company’s three areas: League fees, concessions, and its future enterprise, the Pro Shop. Sales processes are described below.

League fees. Sales are made by a person’s payment to participate in a planned program (hockey) of games and practices within a certain amount of time allotted. The sales process involves several steps that include 1) completion and acceptance of an application form, 2) yearly membership fees, and 3) season league fees. This approach is used because of The Skate Zone’s  legal and liability requirements to protect and guarantee safety in all areas. This will also assist in proper documentation on all individuals participating. This process takes 30 minutes from receiving form to payment and adding individual to the company database. Before the season begins, each person will be categorized, placed on a team, and contacted for verification.

Concessions. Sales are made by a person purchasing products from the snack bar facility. Individuals will have a variety of choices to buy with the ability to sit and enjoy their food or drink while watching the game being played.

Pro Hockey Shop. This is a future enterprise that The Skate Zone will be developing within a year of its first day of operation. Sales are made by patrons purchasing products that will be available in the store. Products offered will include hockey equipment, hockey memorabilia, and other mementos.

Pricing Strategy

The company sets pricing based on market and competitive rates. League fees will be a set charge for each season of play. The exception will be for the yearly membership fee every player, coach, and referee will render for insurance purpose. Concessions and the future Pro Shop prices will be subject to taxes and rate increases from each respective business or enterprise associated with The Skate Zone. The table below provides the company’s pricing structure.

Product/Service Price Range
Fee: Membership $10
Fee: League $60
Concessions $.50-$5
Accessories $.50-$250
Rental (Arena) $300-$500/day
