Heritage, Beliefs, Vision

At National Sports, our vision is to create a unique retail experience that seamlessly meets the needs of the sports communities in which we serve.

The National Sports story started when Norm Clements created National Gym Clothing Limited, in 1968. Although he started out selling sports equipment from the trunk of his car, his passion couldn't be contained and the company expanded to include multiple retail stores in Southern Ontario. Now owned by FGL Sports Ltd. and its parent, Canadian retail icon Canadian Tire Corporation, National Sports continues to provide outstanding selection, pricing and service to its loyal Customers across Ontario.

We believe team sports are unique because they create a sense of community for the players, their families and fans. Yet every community needs a centre – a place they can go for resources, counsel, expertise and support. That’s where we come in. We offer the broadest selection of the best brands for team sports, and hire only knowledgeable staff who are passionate about helping you raise your game.
