About Us
Nicho's Megasports has been around for 21 years. We started in Drouin as Sports Traders in 1990, then became Nicholson's Sportspower in 1991, and traded in both Drouin and Warragul during 1993. In September 1994 we closed the Drouin shop and opened our present location at 21 Smith St Warragul. We parted with Sportspower in 1997, and joined with Karls, in Moe, Traralgon and Bairnsdale, and Howard and Schuback, in Sale, to become Nicho's Megasports.
In 1998 we joined with the Team Sports Buying Group, adding national buying power, to enable us to be even more competitive on range and price. Our Owner, Peter Nicholson became chairman of the Team and was instrumental in its growth, from a group of around 30 Stores to its present size of 85 stores stretching from Perth to the Gold coast, and many major towns in between. The Team rebranded as Independent Sports recently, in order to provide a more visible profile for members to jointly advertise and promote the strength of Australia largest independent buying group. In 2007 we opened our second location, Nicho's Independent Sports, five doors up at 33 Smith St, to provide a broader range of big sports hardware and fitness equipment.
