Package Options
Rookies
-
Rookies is a program that works with the youngest athlete population, usually ages 5-9 years old. This program is meant to be fun, engaging, and to create a positive relationship with training that lasts a lifetime.
-
PROGRAMMING—The programming contains warm-ups, activation activities, technical drills, sprints and jumps for specific days, and games and drills in each training day to keep your athletes enjoying their training, competing, and building a culture of fun and hard work.
EDUCATION—Understanding how to coach is half the battle. Included in every speed and speed+ package purchased comes with access to our full education suite about techniques, coaching cues, and ideas for how to make your program the best it can be.
LOGISTICS—How to fill your classes and be able to provide the service (and bring in the extra revenue that Goldfinch Speed provides) is its own special challenge. You’ll get a one-on-one onboarding and service to make sure your program is running smoothly and profitably.
-
It is $199 per month for the programming, education, and logistics for each facility.
There is also a setup fee, but—because we hate prohibitive upfront fees that, once paid, kill the service you receive—that fee isn’t paid until three months after you start with Goldfinch Speed. We provide the service and only bill you once you’re off and running. This setup fee, which covers all onboarding, is $500.*If paid annually, take 15% off
Goldfinch Speed and Elite
-
Goldfinch Speed and Elite are programs that work with athletes who have a goal of improving. Goldfinch Speed is a segment of athletes from ages 10~14 and Elite is a program that works with those 15+. This program is meant to be fun, engaging, and to create a positive relationship with training that lasts a lifetime, but these athletes can be pushed.

Why should I use Goldfinch Speed if I’m a gym or facility?
Goldfinch Speed was founded by gym owners, so we understand the concerns that gym owners have. One major concern is providing excellent service to members and athletes. Another is making money. Goldfinch Speed addresses both of these concerns.
Our speed program inside of our flagship facility, Acceleration Iowa Ankeny which is inside Ankeny Sports Performance, brought in an average of between $14-21k/mo across 2022 with 1 full-time employee (the fluctuations are due to natural seasonality since fall and spring are heavier school activity seasons). This facility has been running our program for 15 years, so it’s had time to grow, so that’s not typical out of the gate. Our partner facilities, though, have only been in operation for an average of 18 months and will average $2,000/month with minor part-time staffing adjustments.
The other attribute, though, is that the service provided—athleticism and speed training—is applicable to all youth athletes participating in sports without stepping on the toes of the local coaches and schools who do sport-specific training. So you’re able to get young people (target ages 6-10, 11-14, 15-18, and 18+) in your facility and engaged with training, improve their athleticism, and build a positive relationship with training.
This program is also symbiotic with your adult fitness programming. The more athletes you have, the more parents of those kids come into your facility and see their neighbors and colleagues working out. And your existing members have kids who are looking to improve their sports performance. When implemented correctly, a Goldfinch Speed program improves both sides of the facility.
