US-based sporting goods retailer Dick’s Sporting Goods has revealed plans to open a concept store in New York.
Dick’s House of Sport will be located in Victor, Ontario County, and is due to open on 9 April.
The store will be equipped with an outdoor turf field and running track spread across a 17,000ft² area, golf hitting bays fitted with TrackMan simulators, a rock-climbing wall and a batting cage featuring HitTrax technology.
It will also feature the company’s first House of Cleats, a health and wellness destination, and a consolidated service area.
Dick’s House of Sport will offer athletic and outdoor apparel brands and a wide range of footwear and equipment for team sports, golf and fitness.
The company is planning to expand this concept to Knoxville, Tennessee, later this year.
