ABOUT RG SOURCE FOR HOCKEY
At RG Source for Hockey, we believe that no two players are quite the same. They have different bodies. Different styles of play. Different skill levels. Different ambitions. Different budgets. When it comes to sports, every player is different, and every player deserves to feel confident that the products they buy truly fit their game.
Which is why, since 1995, we’ve built our business on the principle that we don’t “sell” hockey equipment. That’s not our job. It’s our job to go above and beyond to understand the unique needs of each and every player that walks through our doors, and then to use our knowledge to guide them toward the products that best meet those needs.
Its why our stores are staffed by people who know, love, and play the game themselves. Why we take the time to personally test all the products on our shelves. Why we ask questions and listen before advising. And why we make sure the fit is perfect before we even think about the checkout counter.
No matter what kind of player you are, whether you’re a veteran or new to the game, on the way to the pros or just out for fun, you can always trust that the gear you leave with is the gear that’s right for you.
- Mission – To go above and beyond in helping each player find the products that best meet their unique needs.
- Expert Staff – We understand that shopping for hockey gear has gotten complex. That’s why at RG Source for Hockey you’ll deal with expert staff whose fist-hand knowledge and love for the game translates into trustworthy, tangible advice and professional services when you need them most.
- Personalized Service – Every time you visit a RG Source for hockey store you will have a one-on-one service experience tailored to your needs and price. We ask the right questions so that you always leave with just the right stuff.
- Genuine Value – We respect that playing hockey requires not just a commitment of time and energy, but also hard earned money. We go above above and beyond to offer an experience that’s always a great value for yours.
- Community Care – We view hockey as a community game and cherish our connection to our leagues, players, and local customers. Every RG Source for Hockey is embedded in the community it serves to best meet our customers’ needs.
ABOUT SOURCE FOR HOCKEY
In the late 1960s, a collection of sporting goods stores in Southwestern Ontario decided to buy as a group, allowing them to create better value for their customers. This buying group grew to become the brand we know today as Source for Hockey, and has over 150 retail locations across North America.
The beauty of Source for Hockey is found in the way each store connects with their local community. Each community from coast to coast is unique, be it a quaint small town or a vast metropolis.
SOURCE FOR HOCKEY STORES ARE INDEPENDENTLY OWNED AND OPERATED, MEANING STORE OWNERS CAN CUSTOMIZE THEIR CATEGORIES, PRODUCTS, AND SERVICES TO CATER TO THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY THEY CALL HOME.
We mean that literally, too, as many of our store owners grew up in the communities they now serve. It's due to this homegrown connection that many of our stores support local teams, tournaments, and initiatives to give back whenever they can.
NOT ONLY ARE THE PEOPLE IN OUR STORES LOCALS, BUT THEY'RE ATHLETES AS WELL.
When we say 'We Fit Your Game', we mean it. From playing to coaching, our owners and staff members have a love for the products they sell, and with that experience and passion comes a great deal of knowledge to help you find 'the right gear for your game, at the right price'
Through partnerships with industry leading brands and manufacturers, we are able to properly test out new products on the ice before bringing them to our stores.
AT SOURCE FOR HOCKEY, WE KNOW THAT THERE'S A PERFECT FIT FOR EVERY ATHLETE, AND WE DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO HELP FIND THAT FIT FOR EVERY INDIVIDUAL THAT VISITS US ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
This means our members can give you a description of the fit and feel of the gear you're trying on, rather than simply a summary of the tech specs.
