DICK'S Sporting Goods Partners with Xavier Worthy for Second Chapter of “Holiday Shopping Sprint”
The Kansas City Wide Receiver and NFL Scouting Combine 40-Yard Dash Record-Setter makes lightning-fast home deliveries to lucky winners
PITTSBURGH, Dec. 12, 2024 -- DICK'S Sporting Goods (NYSE: DKS) today released the second iteration of its Holiday Shopping Sprint, bringing high-speed home delivery to two holiday shoppers from the fastest sprinter in NFL Scouting Combine history, Xavier Worthy.
In October, athletes in the Kansas City area were asked to share with DICK’S how winning a home delivery from Worthy would bring speed, ease and unforgettable cheer to their holiday season. Tanisha and her 8-year-old son, AJ, as well as Molly from the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Kansas City, were chosen as the two deserving winners. Each curated their $2,500 dream holiday gift list from DICK’S, which Worthy then shopped for in-store and hand-delivered to their homes in record time.
“Surprising our athletes with gifts off their list was such a delight,” said Melissa Christian, Vice President of Global Brand and Category Marketing at DICK’S Sporting Goods. “This was another way we could meet our athletes where they are – literally! – and to do to it in record time by having Xavier Worthy, who is known for his speed, shop and deliver to doorsteps was even more fun. He was the perfect partner for this year’s Holiday Shopping Sprint.”
“I love the holidays,” said Xavier Worthy, “so partnering with DICK’S Sporting Goods to bring smiles to faces and knock out some holiday wish lists was right up my alley.”
Worthy can’t make it to every home this holiday season, but DICK’S offers other convenient ways to shop online on DICKS.com or through the DICK'S mobile app with fast and convenient delivery options such as:
- Free Shipping: DICK'S Sporting Goods ScoreCard members logged in to their account with orders of $49 or more are eligible to receive free shipping.
