Small Town Beginnings, Bigger Aspirations

In 1948, Dick Stack cast off on his dream to make a living doing something he loved - fishing. What he reeled in has since become the most dynamic chain of sporting goods superstores in America. With the help of his grandmother's $300 investment, Dick opened a modest bait and tackle shop in Binghamton, New York, which established our proud heritage and opened the doors to the vibrant fanfare that defines the DICK'S brand of today. As we continue to grow bigger, we look for more team players who can excel doing what they enjoy.

Growing Faster
At DICK'S Sporting Goods, we're in the midst of an expansion kick, opening new stores, and providing opportunities for careers to grow faster too. The quickest way to learn just how exciting it is to work at DICK'S is to step into one of our stores. Within our walls, you'll find employees who are as passionate about what they do as the day they started, as well as specialty stores all located under one roof.

From fairway woods to the backwoods, there's plenty here to be excited about. Our Sportsman's Lodge offers everything for hunting, fishing, hiking, water sports and camping, while golfers enjoy a Pro Shop that boasts a premium selection. Sportswear lovers will find a separate department designed specifically for them, offering a huge selection of both footwear and apparel. We've even got an indoor track where runners can test gear before purchase.

320 Stores and Counting
Growing from 22 stores in 1994 to 322 stores in 2007, DICK'S Sporting Goods quietly flew under the radar with a thoughtful approach to the business. Our competitive, driven and focused mentality has enabled us to become the largest full line sporting goods company in America.

We have stores in 34 states, and we're building new ones all the time. Our corporate office is located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and we have two distribution centers - one is located just south of Pittsburgh and the other is near Indianapolis, Indiana.

Our People Give More
We relentlessly drive for improvement in everything we do. And our people give more. We give more energy, passion and focus to remain the most complete sporting goods retailer. Our products are authentic, cutting edge, exclusive and first to market - and it's the people in our stores, distribution centers, and corporate office who help keep DICK'S Sporting Goods at the front of the pack.
