Advantages: Fashionable and are clued up when it comes to sportsgear Disadvantages: Quite expensive and mithering staff!!
First Sport is without a doubt THE one stop sports shop!!
There is a string of First Sport stores around the country so there is bound to be one near you.
First Sport boasts a vast range of sporting products: reams and reams of footwear for almost every possible sporting occasion; fantastic, fashionable sportwear, and, sports equipment from the small fidgety items, such as football boot studs to the big and brash (eg. Snooker cues!!)!!
The First ... ...you are simply browsing!!!
First Sport isn't exactly the cheapest sports store on the block, but if you buy from here you are guaranteed quality and products that last the extra mileage. Their stock is also up-to-date with the latest trends and even if you can't find what you are looking for, it is an easy process to order it in from another one of their stores.
Although their products aren't cheap, there is also the option of opening up a First ...

Advantages: you can meet aliens (or possibly robots) Disadvantages: I think we have covered these
...made the mistake of entering First Sport. (At last constant reader we reach the point of this ramble.)
This is a small shop with a minimal selection of sports wear. This is more than compensated by a maximum complement of staff. There was one every six feet up both sides of the shop. The scariest bit was about to happen. AS YOU PASS THEM EVERYONE OF THEM SMILES AND SAYS "HI" TO ALL FOUR OF US IN TURN. I reckon I heard the word "Hi" over two thousand ... ...I have witnessed since the last school play I was forced to watch.
Every other minute one of these sales staff (who I believe to be robots or possibly aliens) would ask if we needed any help. What for, there was next to nothing in the shop. The stock budget was obviously diverted to the staff budget.
Anxious to escape to reality we grabbed a pair of shin guards and went to the counter. Despite the billions of staff around there was NO-ONE BEHIND ...

Advantages: good range of stock Disadvantages: not always the right prices
Being a top employee of this great shop I cant really say much against it (well i could but that would be totally unloyal of me and i dont want to loose my job).
The range of shoes that come in to the store are exciting and cover a wide range of sports. The clothing for men, women and children is available in a variety of materials, styles and sizes in all the brands:
New Balance
Nike
Adidas
Reebok
Ellesse
Fila
Yves Saint Laurent
Kickers
... ...The accessories are of a great scale too - squash, tennis, badminton, rugby, football, golf, gym, you name it, we have it - even snooker. There are queues in some of our smaller stores but we do try to keep them as low as possible and we are proud to say that customer service is high on our list.
BUT be warned: working in my store my mean that you have to work with people from past existances who youd rather forget (Carl, Kieren, Tom, Julia) - isnt ...

Advantages: good range of clothes Disadvantages: meaty beefers
...feel that buy shopping in First Sport I have covered both aspects. I have to say that there is a very good range of trainers and leisure footwear which are always being replensihed with new, stylish designs and they are for sale at a reasonable price.
There is an extensive range of clothing on the racks which is always maintained by the staff who dedicate themselves to making everything look pristine. This makes the First Sport shopping experience ... ...it by all costs! First Sport also has a good selection of sporting euipment (if you're into that kind of thing).
The service is fantastic, there always seems to be someone waiting to help you- although in my local branch some of the assistants are somewhat scary and meaty-beeferish. The queues are usually short and fast moving which shows that there is good organisation. ...

Advantages: Friendly staff, frightenly friendly Disadvantages: Hell on earth, trust me go elsewhere
I have never felt the presence of desparation as much in my life, I was shopping and was in need of new shinpads for my hockey. I entered the store to find the staff arranged in a 4-4-2 formation around the stores three main walls, the store was empty and it is no wonder, each member of staff said "hi" with the cheesy grin you would expect from a car salesman. the moment I opted to look at a product I was hassled by the nearest member of staff until ... ...alone.
In the end i stumbled out with two T-Shirts,trousers,trainers, two polo-shirts a snooker cue and histories most expensive shinguards
"They are solid plastic with a metal lining and a thick foam backing" i was told "These particular ones protect your angles from kicks and simular impact" Who Cares
"They are great value at only £24.99". So I am easily enticed into purchasing a product, there is no need to cannabilise this fact.
In the end ...

Advantages: A big Range of Sport wear to suit all Disadvantages: None
...my son all shop from First Sport, they do some really good trainers for little ones and all their prices are reasonable. Kiddie Reebok Classics and Nike Cortez are around £22/£24.00.
There smallest size in clothes starts at 2 years old. I think they should start to do baby sport clothes like Footlocker do, Footlocker cater for 3 months and up in clothes which is really good also at affordable prices e.g Nike Navy Shorts £5 or less, Adidas Romper ... ...or less, Footloocker always seem to have a sale on so that's why I say or less...
You can apply for a store card, which we have. Our credit limit is only £250 and the minimum payment on that is £10 a month.
They see a range of stuff from Trainers to Jogging bottoms, Shirts, T-shirts, Socks, Swimwear, Footballs, Football boots, Wallets and Leather protective stuff for your trainers that you buy.
They sell all makes/brands e.g Nike, Adidas, Reebok, ...

Advantages: new exclusives, an ok price, sells good brands. Disadvantages: sometimes not in stock, sometimes a queue
First sport is one of the most popular shops for sports clothes. They sell all the good sports brands, like nike, adidas, elesse, reebok, and many more. They normally have the stock in, but if they dont, they will have more coming in. The shoes are not always in stock, but are there any shops that always have your size?? no! they always have new stock coming in soon, so the sizes will be there, and the staff will reserve your size for you. The shoes ... ...than 5 minutes, and the staff are very friendly in all these stores. The clothes are placed high up sometimes, but all you need to do is ask for help, and they give it right away, in some shops you have to wait though. The style of clothing varies, and there are always new exclusives in clothes and shoes. ...
