Every season it feels like the same story – boots, trainers, PE kits, even rackets – and before they’re worn in, the kids have already grown out of them.
I’ve tried handing things down, donating and even buying second-hand online, but it can be hit-and-miss. Selling old kit is tricky too – the usual places never feel set up for sports gear.
That’s actually led me to start working on a new platform just for pre-owned sports gear – a space where parents and players can both buy more affordably and sell what they no longer need.
I’d love to hear what you think — would a dedicated platform like this make it easier for more kids to stay in sport without the costs adding up so quickly?
