The only sports shop in town and, infuriatingly, still only catering to primarily toff sports (read…read morethose with tennis courts in their back garden). The shop is small, but the use of space is poor. The staff are friendly and helpful, but you'd be better visiting a larger town and a chain store than spending money here. (Unless, of course, you've managed to bang your last tennis ball over next door's fence)

As a common or garden tennis player without my own court, I find this to be a very helpful and…read morefriendly, albeit small shop with a good range of the equipment that I want to try and buy. They are always happy to arrange demo rackets, and despite Kevin J.'s slightly jaundiced review, I would recommend a visit.

This is a large sports shop on two levels, they sell lots of sports clothing and trainers…read more They have items for children and adults and they usually have most sizes in stock. They sell other sports items like footballs and football boots and accessories. Everything is a good price and they have lots of promotions. The staff can be quite slow and hard to find but are alright. Great free parking for 2 hours and lots of spaces.

Sports World is massive! Near to Morrisons, it has all sports clothing you can need, for example…read morefootball kits, golf shirts, shorts trainers and ladieswear. It has an upstairs section, where the main ladies clothing section is. Downstairs there is kids clothes and trainers. The prices are so cheap, and the parking is free for 2 hours.

They don't have everything, but they do have lots of stuff you simply will not find elsewhere. Cleanly organized with computers available to do searching, the departments are easily laid out by category and the items are clearly priced and displayed nicely. Not like the usual department store lay out or even like a supermarket lay out, it's got that Ikea flavor where the shopping space is laid out in a large oval with different offshoots. Like Ikea. Too many departments to accurately describe, you probably should just look at their web page. I saw paper shredders and tents and even two man inflatable boats, plus hardware and tools, home appliances and an amazing assortment of tv cables.

On a recent trip back, stopped in here to check out what my Dad was on about. It's deceiving from…read morethe front. It's a pretty big store. When you look inside they have everything for everyone. Like on of those stores where everyone could find something to buy if they so desired. It reminds a bit of pound land and dollar stores but with a bit nicer goods, so perhaps a 2 poundland. Worth a gander if you need to pick up something cheap or have some time to kill.
