Sports Instructors in Australia Industry Data and Analysis
Restrictive economic conditions have hampered revenue for the Sports Instructor industry. Reduced household disposable income has made it harder for families to justify the cost of coaches and instructors for casual sports, leading to a dip in demand. Online video games are becoming more popular among younger Australians, a key market for the industry, compounding with financial woes to result in faltering participation in sports that require coaches and trainers. These factors have seen revenue drop by an estimated 1.7% in 2024-25 to $1.91 billion. This represents an anticipated 1.4% annualised hike over the past five years, albeit from a weak base year during the pandemic. Profit margins have recovered over the same period, but still trail pre-pandemic highs.
