After nearly 30 years in business, Sport's Authority officially went out of business in July of 2016. Long-time competitor Dick's Sporting Goods purchased Sport's Authority's intellectual property on July 21, 2016. In less than a week after the purchase, Dick's redirected the Sport's Authority website to the Dick's Sporting Goods website. While it is unlikely that Sport's Authority ever comes back as it was before, BestBlackFriday.com still receives traffic from shoppers who are looking for the name. For that reason, we will leave this page up in its current form to act as an alert of Sport's Authority's status as a permanently closed business.

We recommend visiting our Black Friday Ads page in order to find flyers from various sporting goods retailers who are still in business.
