In a bid to commemorate National Sports Day which falls on August 29 and marks the birth anniversary of India's hockey legend Dhyan Chand, Amazon.in is launching a dedicated National Sports Day store which goes live tomorrow.
All sports enthusiasts can now shop for a wide selection of sports equipment at one place.
The store will include a wide variety of outdoor and indoor sports, helping people with the necessary equipment to get playing and get outdoors. The store will have great deals running on sports products across the entire week.
The sports category on Amazon.in has been serving the needs of sports enthusiasts for the last 18 months.

Amongst these, products with 'Fulfilled by Amazon' have increased from 4,000 during launch to over 18,000 currently - a 350 per cent jump.
