Gear Scholarships Available.

Gear UP!

Bozeman Optimists, Play It Again Sports and Thrive offer a gear scholarship so the cost to play doesn't get in the way of kids' participation in sports. Most sports leagues offer fee scholarships. Well, we've got the gear scholarship to go with their fee scholarships.

 

To apply for a Gear-UP Scholarship, print and complete the application. Turn it in at Play It Again Sports. Bozeman Optimists Club will review and approve your application, usually within a few days of applying. Then Play It Again Sports will help outfit your player. Scholarships generally are up to about $100 and we will stretch those funds as far as possible with used or affordable gear that we carry. Our group will outfit your player with gear needed for any sport that Play It Again Sports sells - both team and individual sports.

Are you getting an EdgeVantage? Ask for it by name!

You get the same sharpen every time!  Here's how: Our Skate Techs are taught using the most stringent training system in the country (Edgevantage, PIAS stores across Canada & the US). Each apprentice sharpener does a minimum of 150 skates, sharpened and inspected for perfection, BEFORE they are certified to touch a player’s skate. They are closely supervised as they continue to sharpen hundreds more. PIAS-Bozeman sharpens over 4000 skates a year – so our techs get a lot of practice and develop a keen eye.

WE ARE BOZEMAN'S SKATE SHOP...NO ONE SHARPENS MORE SKATES!

Do you want to better understand sharpening? Ask any of the techs or attend one of our seasonal Sharpening Clinics.
