Leicester Sports Shops

At one time declared by many locals to be the UK’s “sporting capital”, Leicester has had some good sporting acheivements and continues to thrive with many excellent Leicester sports shops catering for all types of sporting activity.

With pro (or semi pro) teams including sports such as football, basketball, athletics and rugby, there is certainly a proud sporting heritage in and around the city – and that is backed up by the fact that Leicester was chosen to stage the highly successful British Special Olympics in 2009.
