James was frustrated in previous jobs where his ideas and passions were not valued. He took matters into his own hands and founded The JR Sports Group in 2021 to encourage children to lead active lifestyles through affordable, fun sports coaching. The company aims to create positive relationships between children and sports that will last a lifetime.

The JR Sports Group has achieved tremendous growth in a short time through James’ vision and commitment to high standards. He plans to continue expanding the company to reach more children and promote sports participation for boys and girls of all abilities.

James Richardson has been selected as a finalist for the Great British Entrepreneur Awards 2023, known as “The Grammys of Entrepreneurship.” The awards ceremony will be held in London on November 20th.
