Blackburn Store Closure

Important Announcement: Our Blackburn Rink Store Is Closing

It’s with a heavy heart that we share an important update with our community: Our Blackburn Rink Store is Closing

This decision wasn’t made lightly. Over time, the store’s small footprint and limited storage capacity made it increasingly challenging for us to deliver the level of service and product availability that our customers expect and deserve.

To continue providing the best possible experience, we’ve had to make this difficult choice.

Customer Information

The stores last opening day will be Sunday 11th January and will close at the normal 4pm time. Our opening hours until then will remain as normal.

If you have any outstanding orders or require services or goods prior to then, the team in store will be able to support as normal.

After the store closure, all outstanding orders and regular stock items will be moved back to our warehouse.

Thank You for Your Support

We want to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who visited, supported, and shopped with us at our Blackburn location over the years. Your loyalty and passion for the sports have meant the world to us.
