Sportlink Specialist Sports, now owned by Leeds Utd and England right back Danny Mills, Ex International Marathon Runner Neil Featherby and former Norwich City and now Southend Utd footballer Daryl Sutch, was originally set up during 1994 to offer a service to those looking to purchase serious sports equipment from a serious sports shop ( as opposed to all the fashion orientated so called sports shops that were springing up around the Country ) that had personal who were dedicated and qualified to offer advice on all aspects of sports footwear, clothing and equipment.

All our stock is specially selected by either Danny, Neil or Daryl in what we consider will meet the demands of playing and training for sport from leading brands such as Nike, Adidas, Asics, Mizuno, Puma, Valsport, Umbro, Mitre, Saucony, Cardio Sport plus much, much more. Footballers of all ages are catered for whether it be for a tie up or tin of dubbin, through to the very latest in boots. Goal Keepers equipment is stocked from brands such as Uhlsport, Adidas, Mitre and Sells and Park Kits and every aspect of training and playing equipment for teams from the very youngest junior sides up to the semi professional and professional clubs.

The specialist running department offers equipment for men, women, boys and girls of all ages whether it be for track and field, cross country or road running. Our staff are trained to meet the individual needs of each and everyone of our customers, whether it be for the excessive over pronator, or the relaxed economical style of the neutral runner through to the high arched rigid foot of the supinator, that requires footwear offering plenty of cushioning, shock absorption and flexibility. Our staff will ask various questions after an examination of your feet, body type, running style and old shoes if you have them.

The type of questions raised will consist of some details on your past and present training, the type of terrain you run on as well as your future running plans and goals. We will also ask for any history that there may be regarding injuries. Once we feel we have established and identified shoes that are best suited for you and your type, a selection from various brands will be brought out for you to try outside of our shop where we are able to get a good look of how your running gait copes with each model and just as importantly for you to decide on which model feels the best and most comfortable for you.

We also have an excellent range of footwear, clothing and equipment for squash and badminton players as well as catering for those that wish to play in the odd game of tennis, schools to club standard hockey, or just want to work out in the Gym.

Sportlink also now offers advice and purchase from our website and online shop, where we will endeavour to still give you the type of service we pride ourselves on with next day delivery where required.
