A Sporting Goods Store With A Mission Beyond Sports.

Sporting World RF was started because River Falls needed it. When the local sporting goods store closed, families — especially those on a tighter budget — lost access to affordable gear in a town that runs on sports.

So we opened. Run by volunteers. Priced for real people. And every year, net proceeds go directly to the River Falls Community Food Pantry as a single annual donation; a collective impact built one purchase at a time.

That's the cycle. You buy gear. A neighbor gets fed. A kid gets back in the game.

Athletes of the Month

Each month, we celebrate two local athletes: one from River Falls Youth Sports and one from UW-RF.

  • Anders

    River Falls Youth Sports

    What Anders has to say…

    I like to wrestle with my friends. My sister and cousins wrestle. And it’s fun to win.

    Anders’ uncle, Kevin Black, is an All American wrestler and coach.

    I like to look at things that I like in Sporting World and there’s a lot of cool stuff there.

  • Emery

    UW-River Falls

    What Emery has to say…

    I like to play soccer because it gives me an outlet to be active and competitive with a team full of my best friends. It’s so fulfilling to work towards a common goal with a group of girls that are working just as hard as you

    Sporting World is a cool store because it helps people in need while also enabling kids to play the sports that they love.
