Sports Authority has remodeled six Orlando stores and will hold grand reopening events at each location on Saturday, May 16 at 8 a.m.

The redesigned stores have everything customers need to get active, including the latest from top brands like Nike, Under Armour, Adidas, The North Face and more.

“We are very excited about the grand reopening of our stores in Orlando,” said Michael Foss, chief executive officer of Sports Authority. “Sports Authority believes in bringing communities together through the good of sport, and we are committed to providing great value and outstanding service to families and recreational athletes across the Orlando area.”

In the spirit of giving back, Sports Authority is also donating $50,000 to renovate local athletic fields and invites customers to join them in making a difference. Beginning Saturday, May 16 to Friday, June 12, customers can round up their total purchase to the next dollar and all proceeds will directly benefit Orlando community fields.
