Academy Sports + Outdoors announced a third planned Louisville-area store located in Elizabethtown, Ky., scheduled to open in 2015. Academy previously announced stores opening in Louisville and Middletown, which will both open prior to the 2014 holiday season.
All three locations were developed in partnership with GBT Realty Corporation.
Academy Sports + Outdoors also announced new multi-year partnerships with both the University of Louisville Cardinals and also the University of Kentucky Wildcats.
“We are thrilled to form new partnerships with two of the most prestigious athletic partners in the state of Kentucky,” says Tammi Hysell, Academy Sports + Outdoors’ senior director of promotions. “All three of our organizations share a commitment to our community, fans, and their families, and we look forward to providing Cardinals and Wildcats fans everything from team gear to camping, fishing and hunting essentials and more at everyday low prices.”
The stores will feature sports, outdoor and lifestyle products from top brands such as Nike, adidas, Under Armour, Columbia and much more. Academy is committed to offering the best brands at low prices – everyday. If customers find a lower price elsewhere, Academy will match that advertised price at any of its stores.
