“I have been looking for an opportunity like this for over 20+ years. Your entire staff has made this such an amazing experience.”
“We knew from the first day that we used the Area Scouts technology that this was exactly what we were looking for! To be able to implement this technology with our athletes today, while avoiding the time spent and high costs of software development, finding Area Scouts is an absolute blessing for us.”
“Best decision we ever made, to join Area Scouts, to help the kids in our community that cannot afford programs like this.”
“I've been with Area Scouts since the beginning. The biggest pros I have seen with this company is its support. I had the CEO himself put together 3 partnerships for me. I still work with all 3 of them.”

Area Scouts Software Platform, Application, and Professional Sports Industry Director Programming Rights Acquired by Beacon Private Equity Group
A new chapter focused on continued support, technology investment, and planned global expansion.
Area Scouts is entering a new chapter following the acquisition of its Software Platform, Application, and Professional Sports Industry Director Programming Rights by Beacon Private Equity Group. The transaction closed on August 27, 2026.
To our community of 3,003 active sports coaches and 7,065 global company representatives: our commitment to supporting you remains unwavering. Going forward, support and program oversight will be coordinated through a management group established by the acquiring firm, with a continued focus on the people and relationships that make Area Scouts possible.
With 400+ Regional, State, and Local Licenses recently sold to coaches around the world, this next chapter is focused on strengthening our network and supporting its continued growth — powered by coaches determined to help Area Scouts and its partners prevent millions of youth athlete injuries globally.
The private equity group's plans include ramping up global expansion during 2027–2028 and pursuing a technology strategy focused on adding and integrating software platforms to strengthen the Area Scouts infrastructure and community. Details about specific acquisitions, integrations, and market launches will be shared through upcoming network-wide team meetings.
The Area Scouts platform remains available at app.areascouts.com. The mission continues: to support athlete health and development through professionally created assessments, screens, corrective measures, education, and training resources that help athletes, parents, and coaches build a stronger foundation across youth sports.
The latest software update under the new structure is scheduled for November 1, 2026.
Thank you to all of the Coaches, Licensees, and Partners who have supported Ownership, Management, Operations, and most importantly, the vision of the Area Scouts movement for the past 10+ years. We are truly blessed to have those who have committed themselves to the future of youth athletes for years to come!
We look forward to a lasting relationship as we build the next chapter of Area Scouts together.
