I seriously love this store and their prices are fair but as a parent of a hockey player. Their selection on youth hockey equipment is awful and not a single item for goalies Peoria has tons of hockey teams they should put in a bigger hockey section from youth all the way up to senior and add goalie equipment.

Prices are good, employee greeters are super friendly, and altho they do ask, they don't push applying for their credit card on you. Wish they had a bigger name brand selection/variety (nike section is popular but quite small for youth boys).

Great sports store. I usually find what I'm looking for. No luck this time. We were looking for golf gear birthday presents. We'll be back.
