Tyler Athletics

January 12th, 2010

There is another sporting goods store in Tyler I have neglected to write about until now. Tyler Athletics is to area sports programs what Gander Mountain is to sportsmen. They do not carry outdoor gear, but when it comes to athletic equipment they are extremely well stocked. The selection is not what Academy Sports is due to the size of the place however they certainly make the most of the room they have. Better still they have a small business personal touch that the larger shops can’t duplicate.

The market T.A. serves consists largely of local schools (public and private) and other community sports programs. They can fill large orders or small. The merchandise they offer for local schools looks great and is very professional.

Tyler Athletics also carries merchandise from just about all the Texas colleges, as well as professional sports teams. Signed memorabilia from any number of Texas sports celebrities is displayed around the entrance of the store and serves to validate the owner’s connection to area athletics.

Overall this is one of the better such outlets in town. It definitely surpasses Racquet and Jog for quality and selection of actual sports equipment. Not as large as Academy it does offer local customer service. They are located at 5201 S. Broadway, next to Double Dave’s Pizza. For more info visit their website at www.tylerathletics.com.  Back in the day Tyler Athletics was known as Massey and Brown Sporting Goods and was and still is the best place to get baseball and softball gear in Tyler Texas.
