James Taylor

Shared by emma_kate Make Your Mark team
James Taylor was inspired to set up SportStars in 2005 when he realised there were no sports coaching facilities available for young people in his area of South Wales.

Initially running sports coaching courses in the school holidays, James and his team of specialist coaches now also provide a service in schools, helping teachers to fulfil their planning, preparation and assessment (PPA) regulation. After launching with only £1,000 in savings, Sportstars turned over more than £1 million in its second full year of trading.
