Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How is a sports performance center valued for key person insurance purposes?

Valuation typically uses a revenue multiple (1–3x annual revenue) or EBITDA multiple (3–6x), adjusted for the concentration of client relationships tied to the key person. Facilities with diverse client rosters and multiple capable coaches are valued differently than single-coach operations.

Can sports performance centers use life insurance to attract elite coaching talent?

Yes. Executive bonus plans, where the business pays premiums on a permanent policy owned by the coach, are a competitive retention and recruitment tool in the performance industry. The coach benefits from tax-advantaged accumulation, and the business benefits from reduced coach turnover.

What insurance considerations apply to performance centers with youth athlete clients?

Business key person and buy-sell insurance protect the ownership and management layer. Youth-focused facilities also typically carry general liability and professional liability — though those are property-casualty products separate from the life insurance products agents in our network focus on.
