It appears that Sports Authority will be going the way of the dinosaur.
![The Sports Authority will be closing all 450 of it's stores. 9arounddublinblog.com0](https://sneakershoptalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/image.png)
Back in March, the company filed for Chapter 11. At that time, Sports Authority indicated it would close 140 stores and two distribution centers. Saddled with over $1.1 billion and unable to reorganize, the retailer will liquidate all stores and bring its store operations to a close.
Closing all 450 stores across the nation is the final segment in the company’s aim to reorganize under Chapter 11 protection.
