Business of the day: Gene’s Sports Excellence
Gene’s Sports Excellence has been supplying sporting goods to the people of Prince Albert and the surrounding area for 41 years.
The family-owned business was started by Gene Kapacila. “It basically started with saw sharpening and skate sharpening, then he bought a bunch of used skates and it just kind of grew from there,” said Gene’s son Dave Kapacila.
The shop is a go-to destination for everything from sportswear to equipment for any sport. But the store’s seasonal specialties are hockey in the winter and cycling in the summer. “We are known as one of the premier hockey shops in Saskatchewan,” said Dave.
Any level of hockey player can find what they need at Gene’s. Whether you are looking for high-end gear or a bargain, they will have an option for a hockey player of any age.
