Welcome to Play It Again Sports in Calgary Shawnessy

Flaming skates


Who We Are: The Shawnessy location of Play It Again Sports is a locally owned and operated sporting goods franchise that has been serving the Calgary area for over 23 years. We are a family-run business, and own both Play It Again Sports stores in Calgary, this one in Shawnessy Towne Centre and the other location in Westhills Towne Centre. Since we took it over in 2018, we have received frequent praise by our customers who are impressed by the great selection of product and fantastic customer service. We hope you will give us the chance to impress you too! 

What We Do:  We buy, sell, trade and consign new and second-hand sports equipment. We pay cash (cheque) on the spot for quality sports equipment. We buy all the time, every day. You do not need an appointment to come in.  We service what we sell, too, including skate sharpening, heat-moulding, boot stretching, profiling, hockey blade and holder replacements, and ski and snowboard tuning, waxing and binding adjustments. And we do cresting, too.

New and Used: We do sell gently-used sports equipment, which makes us the preferred store of value-conscious people including parents with growing kids. We've made it possible for many kids to participate in sports who otherwise may not have been able to afford it. HOWEVER, we don't just sell used sports equipment! Most of what we sell are NEW items. Nearly 300 Play It Again Sports stores results in tremendous buying power with the manufacturers, allowing us to give you great prices.

Sports We Carry:  Hockey (everything including Goalie), Ringette, Skiing (Downhill and Cross-Country), Snowboarding, Baseball, Softball, Soccer, Golf, Disc Golf, Lacrosse, Racquet Sports, Inline Skating, Ice Skating, Biking, Fitness, Snowshoeing, Skateboarding, Scootering, Water Sports, Volleyball, Basketball, Field Hockey, Football, Curling, Outdoor Games, Sports Apparel, Accessories, Gadgets, Shoes, and a whole lot more! If you can't find what you're looking for, we can probably custom order it for you!

Where We Are:  We are located in RioCan Shawnessy Towne Centre on the corner of Shawville Boulevard and Shawville Gate SE in Calgary, Alberta. We are just down from Tim Hortons, right next to Petland.

Please come in and visit us, we would be happy to equip you in the sport you enjoy - so you can PLAY IT AGAIN and again and again!
