Modell's Sporting Good's Named Retail Partners Of Nycfc.

[Across the Pond]

Just looking on Instagram and the club have announced a retail partnership with Modell's sporting goods. It'll probably just be one of a number of pointless sponsorships.

Didn't think this was worth it's own thread, so I figured putting it here was just as good as anywhere else.......

Actually Modell's is THE sports good store in the city and most of the Northeast in general. This is a pretty big deal because they are everywhere.

I've just made a new thread about this, but I think it'd be better if a Mod merged it and this thread became the Sponsorship thread or something.

Good to hear, so this could draw in more casual fans from outside the NY area?

In New Jersey we have Dicks Sporting Goods and Sports Authority. Modells is very small compared to those two

More to the point, the reason for this sponsorship is that it's serving to create the dedicated NYCFC stores in the city. I'm guessing this means that NYCFC won't have their own merchandise store, at least in the short term.

Posts moved to existing thread as mentioned. All discussion in here, please.

I'm looking forward to price gouging at the stadium

Dick's is more of a newcomer to North Jersey. Modell's has been THE place to grab sports gear for the last 20 years. Doubt this will be an area exclusive deal (pretty sure Dick's had a nationwide MLS deal) but it should make it easier to get NYCFC gear.

Yeah, I think that's the only one in Orange county. There's also one in Poughkeepsie and I'm pretty sure there's one in Kingston.

For those interested, the Modells on 42nd Street near Times Square has the new David Villa player tees (with Etihad sponsor and new MLS logo on the 7) as well as the Inaugural Season logo shirts.

Modell's was old enough to celebrate a Bar Mitzvah when Teddy R. was inaugurated.

Makes sense. They've gotten a ton of Man City stuff at their stores over the summer.
