Wheels, and balls and sticks, oh my! Source for sports in St. Albert has it all and awesome…read morecustomer service. I especially am fond of the service department where I have taken my bikes in for tune ups and flat tires. They are always able to get the work done in a timely manner and the price is way better than other shops i. St. Albert. The store itself sells all things sports, from bicycles to hockey equipment and everything in between they have a good selection and their prices are competitive when I have been looking for a product. The staff is always really great. They are helpful and kind and that makes the whole experience all around great. Tons of parking too, what more could you ask for?

I keep coming back again and again to Source for Sports…read more They consistently have what we need for hockey when other larger retailers are out. And I've yet to see a better price elsewhere! Just today we needed a second pair of compression pants for my hockey kiddo and I got two pairs on clearance here for $20 when they were $70+ just down the street at Sport Check. Plus, we totally lucked out and got help today from Amber (I think???) longtime hockey player who has worked here for years and still picks up the occasional shift. She's baked our skates, fixed stance issues, custom fit super feet, and been all around awesome for us on numerous visits. Protein - prepay for skate sharpenings here to save money and to save time for drop off/pick up! We also get names screened onto jerseys here - whether for soccer or hockey, we've never had a problem with the cresting coming off. We have had an oopsie what they crested but it was fixed quickly and not the end of the world. See you soon Source for Sports, see you soon!

I've shopped at MEC ever since they have come to Edmonton. For $5 you get a lifetime membership…read more MEC is a great Canadian company and you can always trust the quality of the products they carry. When they first opened up the were just off Stony Plain Road and 124th Street. At the time there wasn't huge competition in this market. They provided excellent gear at great prices and are a Canadian Cooperative company to boot. I was thrilled to hear they were moving into South Edmonton Common as it is closer to where I live and work. It is such a great store to meet most of your recreational pursuits -- clothing, bikes, backpacks, camping equipment, shoes, paddling, etc. Always so much to look at and ogle. The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, and there is tons of parking.

It's so expensive. It's over the price, it's not worth it to buy stuff from this type of place…read more It's better, I should ordered online, its so much cheaper especially if a homeless person looking for tents or backpacking stuff it's not affordable, it's the price is ridiculous

I'm not a hockey fan at all, so I had never been in this store before. A friendly worker (maybe owner) greeted me, when I walked in. This place was full of sports merchandise--mostly hockey, but there was some football and a bit of soccer stuff too. I really like the t-shirts of old school football teams. They were made so they looked "vintage." Lots of jerseys, hoodies, t-shirts, and a whole lot of caps lined the walls. There were a few large displays of Oilers merchandise, like yo-yos, keychains, mugs, pucks, clocks, toy cars--pretty much anything you can think of. I ended up getting my friend an Oilers t-shirt and a toothbrush. I mean, who doesn't want to put the Oilers in their mouth? Okay, bad joke.

Was here yesterday and had excellent, friendly and knowledgeable service by Faith. She helped me…read morefind a good Oiler's hat, taught me about sizes ( a small-medium, hmm), and what the different manufacturers do different. I learned a lot, and am grateful. Unfortunately they didn't have the Oiler's hat that I wanted and she recommended another place. She was helping another person before me and listening to her you can tell she is passionate and knows her stuff. Only issue, the company cuts costs and doesn't give business cards at this store. Cheap, and not a real cost cutter, and the signed Oiler's gear got sent to the Oiler's store in Kingsway. Which is a joke and we won't go back due to the horrible lack of service, or even acknowledgement that there are actual shopping customers in that store (4 of us). This place, though, was great! Friendly and superior service. Someone get this lady, Faith, to train other staff at other stores. OR fire those ASSHATS at the Oiler's store in Kingsway and get her in there.

We were looking for bikes and one of my coworkers recommended this business. The place was huge, amazing, well organized with tones of products. I asked Lindsay for help and she spent about two hours with us. I tried 6 bicycles and in the middle of that, Calvin joined and the two of them helped us. Both Lindsay and Calvin were amazing! Friendly, honest and helpful! They did any possible thing to help us finding the bikes we wanted and were suitable for our skill level, heights and weight! For me customer service is the most important factor and I received one of the best customer services here! The place was well organized, the prices were good and I'll definitely go back there again for any sports needs. I highly recommend this business and Thank you Lindsay and Calvin for all the helps! :)

Took the hubs' and kiddo's hockey skates in for sharpening at Stick Fix…read more It's a small town mom and pop shop with a specialty in custom skate sharpening sand stick fixes as the name suggests. Their website is actually fantastic and Jan packed with info! https://www.stickfixstalbert.com/ Ron, the owner, is a local who played rep hockey in both St. Albert & Edmonton and continues his love of hockey today through the opening of this store in 2018 and coaching. This little shop is conveniently located in Sturgeon Plaza just down the road from Akinsdale/Kinex arenas. Granted we haven't stepped on the ice yet in our freshly 5/8 sharpened skates but I'm confident the job was done with care. Ron took the time to discuss with me what kind of skating the hubs and kiddo do and asked us to let him know what we think and to pop back in if we'd like any adjustments. The shop also buys and sells used hockey, ringette, and lacrosse equipment. My son needs to go up a size in skates for spring hockey so we will be back very soon to check out the selection!

Wow, I wasn't expecting this store to be so huge…read more Atmosphere is a great store for outdoor apparel gear (mostly apparel though). Since the store is so freakin' big, there's tons to choose from. Most of what they have to offer is by the likes of Columbia or The North Face. That being said, the prices might seem pretty high, but those brands are pricey to begin with, so I can't hold it against Atmosphere. Columbia and NF winter jackets and outerwear hover around the $200 range because they're really good quality. Either way, Atmosphere always has loads of stuff on sale.

How do I put this... The service was beyond slow. We stood in an empty store (upstairs in the…read moreAtmosphere section ) while 3 people struggled to assist the one person in front of us with an exchange. At one point there were actually 6 sales associates standing at and around the two tills; Not one associate acknowledged us. I finally asked if any of them could assist us with our exchange on the second till to which one of them replied that we could go downstairs, but it would likely take longer. I assured him that it couldn't possibly take longer than this as there was 5 of them standing here and nothing was getting done. We went downstairs to the Sport Check till and were helped writhing 3 minutes.
