Our Story – Everyone has to start somewhere and in 1973 Sport Swap started with 500 sq. feet and a simple idea – to provide an affordable approach to purchasing sporting goods. As demand grew, our consignment outlet also expanded in both size and scope. The past two decades have seen many changes in the sporting goods industry; and by listening to our customer’s needs, we have evolved many of our programs to reflect Calgary’s current sporting trends. We have grown to three stores accommodating the largest selection of new and used sporting goods in Alberta. It has been our superior focus and response to our community’s needs that has enabled us to expand our services, spreading “The Sport Swap Difference” Citywide.
