All NH Sports Authority Stores Could Close Soon

Sports Authority, which operates four New Hampshire locations, will likely shutter all 450 of its stores as the company completes the bankruptcy process.

The company recently told the U.S. Bankruptcy Court it will pursue a sale, meaning all its stores will likely close in the coming months, according to Fortune.

The Nashua Sports Authority store was recently identified for closure. Sports Authority three other New Hampshire stores in Manchester, Salem, and Amherst were slated to stay open, though it was immediately unclear if that's still the case.

The Colorado-based sporting gear chain has been hurt by competition from Amazon and Dick’s Sporting Goods over the last several years.
