In 2011, Canadian Tire bought out full corporate ownership stakes of Sport Chek's parent company, FGL Sports (then known as Forzani), for $771 million, and has since embarked on a large scale brand restructuring.

New Sport Chek stores with Samsung OLED screens, tablets, and high tech were opened at West Edmonton Mall in 2014, Square One Shopping Centre and Yorkdale Shopping Centre in 2015, and a flagship SportChek/Atmosphere opened in Sherway Gardens in the GTA in July 2016.^{[2] [why?]}
