                     INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT 

Board of Directors 
USA Skate Corporation 

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of the Companies 
Being Acquired by USA Skate Corporation (the "Companies", Note 1) as of 
December 31, 1995, and the related combined statements of operations, 
shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year 
period ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the 
responsibility of the Companies' management. Our responsibility is to express 
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a 
reasonable basis for our opinion. 

The accompanying combined financial statements have been prepared for 
inclusion in Form 8-K being filed by California Pro Sports, Inc. to comply 
with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission in 
reporting its acquisition effective April 30, 1996 of a majority ownership 
interest in the Companies.  However, the combined financial statements are 
not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations 
that would have been attained had the Companies actually been operating as a 
combined entity during the periods being presented.

In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present 
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Companies as 
of December 31, 1995, and the results of their operations and their cash 
flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 1995, 
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

           THE COMPANIES BEING ACQUIRED BY USA SKATE CORPORATION

                 NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

                 YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1995
        AND THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1996 (UNAUDITED)


 1.  Basis of presentation, business and summary of significant accounting
     policies: 
     
     Basis of presentation:

     The accompanying combined financial statements include the combined results
     of operations, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows of USA Skate
     Co., Inc. ("USA Skate"), Les Equipements Sportifs Davtec Inc. ("Davtec"),
     and 811300 Ontario Inc. (d/b/a McMartin Hockey Protection) ("McMartin") for
     the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995 and the three months ended
     March 31, 1995 and 1996, and the combined financial position of USA Skate,
     Davtec and McMartin as of December 31, 1995 and March 31, 1996.  USA
     Skate, Davtec and McMartin are collectively referred to as the "Companies".
     The significant subsidiaries of USA Skate are Davtec, acquired by USA Skate
     in 1994, and McMartin, acquired by Davtec in March 1996.  All material
     intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination.
     Effective April 30, 1996, USA Skate and its subsidiaries were acquired by 
     USA Skate Corporation pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement 
     (the "Purchase Agreement").  USA Skate Corporation is a majority owned 
     subsidiary of California Pro Sports, Inc. 

     Subsequent to USA Skate's acquisition of Davtec (Note 2), the year end of
     Davtec was changed from March 31 to December 31 to conform with the year
     end of USA Skate.  This change took effect during the year ended December
     31, 1995. Accordingly, Davtec's 1995 statement of operations has been
     recast to provide a full twelve months of operations from January 1, 1995 
     to December 31, 1995.  For the year ended December 31, 1994, Davtec is
     combined on the basis of its March 31, 1995 fiscal year. The results of
     operations of Davtec for the three months ended March 31, 1995, which
     resulted in a net loss of $143,013, have been adjusted for in the combined
     statements of shareholders' equity.  For the years ended December 31, 1994
     and 1995, McMartin is combined on the basis of its January 31, 1995 and
     1996 fiscal years, respectively.

     Business of the Companies:

           THE COMPANIES BEING ACQUIRED BY USA SKATE CORPORATION

            NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

                 YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1995
        AND THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1996 (UNAUDITED)

 1.  Basis of presentation, business and summary of significant accounting 
     policies (continued):

     Unaudited financial statements:

     The combined balance sheet as of March 31, 1996, the combined statements
     of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and
     1996, and the combined statements of shareholders equity for the three
     months ended March 31, 1996 have been prepared by the Companies without
     audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal
     recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position,
     results of operations and cash flows for all such periods have been made. 
     The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 are not
     necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

     Use of estimates in financial statement preparation:
   
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the 
     financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses 
     during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those 
     estimates.

     Foreign currency translation:

     The balance sheet accounts of Davtec and McMartin are translated from
     Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange at the balance 
     sheet date.  The resultant translation adjustments are included in a 
     cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment, a separate component of
     shareholders' equity. Income and expense accounts are translated at 
     average rates of exchange during the periods. Gains and losses from foreign
     currency transactions are included in net earnings.

     Cash and cash equivalents:

     Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid money
     market accounts with original maturities of three months or less.

     Inventories: 

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in first-out method) 
     or market. 

                                                                            8

        AND THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1996 (UNAUDITED)

 1.  Basis of presentation, business and summary of significant accounting 
     policies (continued):

     Property, equipment, and depreciation: 

     Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is provided by 
     use of accelerated and straight-line methods over the estimated useful 
     lives of the related assets as follows: building and improvements, 20 
     years; machinery, equipment, office equipment and furniture, 5 to 10 years.

     Intangible and other assets:
    
     Intangible and other assets primarily consist of goodwill, arising from 
     the acquisition of Davtec (Note 2).  Goodwill is being amortized on the 
     straight-line method over 25 years.
    
     At each balance sheet date, management assesses whether there has been an
     impairment in the carrying value of intangible assets, primarily by 
     comparing current and projected sales, operating income, and annual cash 
     flows on an undiscounted basis, with the assets' carrying value.  Based on
     its review, the Companies do not believe that an impairment of intangible 
     assets exists. Intangible and other assets consist of:

     Product warranty:

     The manufacturing Companies provide a product warranty covering defects
     in workmanship and materials for a period of one month from the date of
     purchase.

            NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

                 YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1995
        AND THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1996 (UNAUDITED)

 1.  Basis of presentation, business and summary of significant accounting 
     policies (continued):
     
     Income taxes:

     Deferred income taxes are recognized for the future tax consequences 
     attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying 
     amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
     Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates 
     expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
     differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on 
     deferred taxes of a change in tax rates will be recognized in operations 
     in the period of the enactment date.
    
     All U.S. federal and state income taxes and foreign taxes are provided 
     currently on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries, giving 
     recognition to current tax rates and applicable foreign tax credits.  
     Canadian investment tax credits for Davtec are deferred and included in 
     income as a reduction of depreciation expense over the estimated useful 
     lives of the assets that gave rise to the credits.

     Recently issued accounting standards:

     Management does not believe that any recently issued accounting standards
     will have a material impact on the Companies' combined financial position
     or results of operations.

 2.  Acquisition of Davtec and McMartin:

     In 1987, Davtec was formed by USA Skate and unrelated third parties, 
     with USA Skate owning one-third of the outstanding common stock. In August
     1994, USA Skate, through its non-operating subsidiaries, acquired another
     one-third interest,  and in December 1994 acquired the remaining interest
     in Davtec for a total of approximately $1,396,000 in cash.  The 
     acquisition transactions have been accounted for under the purchase method
     of accounting.  USA Skate's total investment in Davtec, of approximately 
     $1,777,000, was allocated to the estimated fair value of the assets 
     acquired and liabilities assumed resulting in approximately $505,000 of 
     goodwill, which is being amortized on the straight line method over 
     25 years.

                                                                            10

        AND THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1996 (UNAUDITED)

 2.  Acquisition of Davtec and McMartin (continued):
    
     In March 1996, Davtec acquired all of the issued and outstanding common
     stock of McMartin for approximately $330,000 in cash and two non-interest
     bearing secured promissory notes of approximately $266,000.  One of the
     promissory notes for $182,000 is due in annual installments equal to 7% of
     McMartin's gross sales, with the unpaid balance due February 2002.  The
     second promissory note is due in 1996. The acquisition was accounted for
     under the purchase method of accounting, and the total purchase price of
     approximately $596,000 was allocated to the fair value of the assets 
     acquired and liabilities assumed. The excess of the purchase price over the
     fair value of approximately $182,000 was allocated to goodwill and is being
     amortized on the straight line method over 25 years. 

 3.  License agreements:

     Victoriaville and Vic trademark licenses: 

     In 1984 and 1987, USA Skate and Davtec entered into trademark license
     distribution agreements with a third party, which granted USA Skate and
     Davtec exclusive worldwide rights to the Victoriaville and Vic trademarks
     in return for license fees based on certain percentages of sales of the 
     related products.
    
     In September 1994, these agreements were terminated, and the controlling
     shareholder of USA Skate acquired the Victoriaville and Vic trademark
     licenses. In connection with this transaction, USA Skate paid approximately
     $500,000 of previously unpaid royalty fees to a third party, due under the
     1984 agreements.  In addition, USA Skate advanced approximately $447,000 to
     the controlling shareholder of USA Skate (Note 11), for which the 
     controlling shareholder has allowed USA Skate to continue to use the 
     trademarks.  Davtec entered into an agreement with the controlling 
     shareholder for the exclusive Canadian trademark rights in return for 
     license fees based on 2% of Davtec's related product sales.  License fees 
     under the Victoriaville and Vic trademarks were $167,258 and $157,126 in 
     1994 and 1995, and $24,160 (unaudited) and $19,556 (unaudited) for the 
     three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively.


                                                                            11

 3.  License agreements (continued):
    
     Effective April 30, 1996, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement,
     the existing Davtec license agreement was terminated, and USA Skate entered
     into an exclusive license agreement with the controlling shareholder of USA
     Skate.  The April 1996 license agreement grants USA Skate the exclusive 
     worldwide rights to the Victoriaville and Vic trademarks through February 
     2003, in return for royalties of 1% of net sales, as defined, which exceed 
     $50,000,000 in the first contract year and $75,000,000 in subsequent years,
     subject to guaranteed minimum royalties of $3,000,000, to be paid in two 
     $150,000 installments in February and June 1997, and $300,000 semi-annual
     installments beginning in December 1997, subordinated to a new credit 
     facility obtained in April 1996 (Note 20).  Upon the payment of $3,000,000
     in royalties, all right, title and interest in and to the trademarks will 
     vest to USA Skate.

     In 1995, Davtec entered into an agreement, which allows Davtec to 
     manufacture and sell certain licensed hockey stick products in Canada, in
     return for license fees based on 2% of sales, as defined, from April 1995
     through October 2002.  License fees under this agreement were approximately
     $15,000 in 1995, and none (unaudited) for the three months ended March 31,
     1996.

     Davtec manufactures hockey equipment under the Hespeler trademark. During 
     1994 and 1995, Davtec agreed to pay fees based on 2% of Hespeler sales, as
     defined, to the trademark owner.  Fees related to Hespeler sales were 
     approximately $38,000 and $53,000 in 1994 and 1995, respectively, and 
     $5,000 (unaudited) and $5,070 (unaudited) for the three months ended March
     31, 1995 and 1996, respectively.

 4.  Inventories:

     Inventories consist of:

                                     December 31,       March 31,  
                                         1995              1996

 6.  Significant concentrations and major customers:

     The Companies grant credit, generally without collateral, to customers 
     in the retail sporting goods industry. The Companies' customers are not 
     concentrated in any specific geographic region.  Bad debt expense was 
     approximately $213,000, and $202,000 in 1994 and 1995, respectively and 
     $38,000 (unaudited) and $28,000 (unaudited) for the three months ended 
     March 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively.

     During 1994 and 1995, approximately 23% and 27%, respectively, of the 
     Companies' purchases were from one supplier, and for the three months ended
     March 31, 1995 and 1996, approximately 51% (unaudited) and 29% (unaudited) 
     were from one supplier.  Management believes that other suppliers could 
     provide similar products on comparable terms.  A change in suppliers, 
     however, could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales 
     which would affect operating results adversely.

                                                                            13

7.   Notes payable, bank:

     At December 31, 1995, USA Skate had $2,673,479 of borrowings outstanding
     under a loan agreement with a bank, $2,394,867 (unaudited)  at March 31,
     1996, which are collateralized by substantially all of USA Skate's assets,
     $300,000 of liquid collateral provided by two shareholders of USA Skate, 
     and personal guarantees of two shareholders of USA Skate. Additionally, 
     $221,770 of shareholder loans are subordinated to the notes payable. Loans
     under the agreement bear interest at 1% above the bank's prime rate of 8.5%
     at December 31, 1995 and 8.25% (unaudited) at March 31, 1996 for working 
     capital loans and 1.50% above the bank's prime rate for acceptances 
     financing, and are due on demand. The agreement contains certain financial
     covenants and restrictions as to the payment of dividends.

     Subsequent to December 31, 1995, the bank notified USA Skate that it was 
     not in compliance with certain financial covenants, and therefore, was 
     in default on the loan agreement.  The bank waived the default subject to 
     the acquisition of the Companies by USA Skate Corporation, which occurred 
     on April 30, 1996. Pursuant to terms of the Purchase Agreement, USA Skate 
     Corporation paid the bank the indebtedness outstanding at April 30, 1996 
     and terminated the loan agreement. This loan agreement was replaced with a
     $5,000,000 credit facility with a new bank (Note 20).

     At December 31, 1995, Davtec had $2,589,789 outstanding under a line of 
     credit agreement with a Canadian bank, $2,648,520 (unaudited) at March 31,
     1996.  Advances are based on 75% of qualifying accounts receivable, 
     including USA Skate receivables, plus 50% of inventories, excluding 
     work-in-process and net of accounts payable less than 30 days in inventory,
     with a maximum limit of $3,648,000.  Loans under the Davtec line of credit 
     agreement bear interest at the bank's prime rate plus 1%. The agreement 
     contains provisions whereby Davtec may not, without prior consent, provide
     third parties with guarantees having precedence over the claims of the 
     lender, pay dividends or bonuses or make any payments to any director, or
     effect any share redemptions. The agreement also contains certain financial
     covenants.  Loans are collateralized by Davtec's accounts receivable, 
     inventories, and personal guarantees of approximately $973,000 from the
     controlling shareholder of USA Skate.

     In March 1996, the bank notified Davtec that it was overdrawn on the line 
     of credit and was deemed to be in default on the agreement.  However, 
     subject to certain terms and conditions of the April 30, 1996 Purchase 
     Agreement, the bank agreed to waive the default and extend the line of 
     credit through July 31, 1997 (Note 20).

           THE COMPANIES BEING ACQUIRED BY USA SKATE CORPORATION

            NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

                 YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1995
        AND THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 AND 1996 (UNAUDITED)

16.  Fair value of financial instruments:

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "DISCLOSURES ABOUT THE
     FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS," requires the Companies to disclose
     estimated fair values for its financial instruments, for which it is 
     practicable to estimate fair value.  The carrying value of long-term debt
     and long-term notes payable to a bank and related parties approximates the
     fair values at December 31, 1995 and March 31, 1996 (unaudited) because the
     instruments bear interest at current market rates.  The carrying amounts of
     the Companies' other financial instruments approximates fair values 
     primarily because of the short maturity of these instruments.

17.  Prior period adjustments:

     In preparing the combined financial statements, certain adjustments were
     necessary to correct for 1994 and prior year-end accounting entries that 
     had previously been made incorrectly by USA Skate.  The effect of these
     adjustments is to increase retained earnings at January 1, 1994 by $10,570,
     $6,340 net of applicable income taxes, and to increase income for the year
     ended December 31, 1994, from what was previously reported by USA
     Skate, by $275,300, $165,195 net of applicable income taxes.  These errors
     have been corrected by retroactively restating the combined financial
     statements for the prior years.

18.  Litigation:

     The Companies are involved in various routine litigation incidental to the
     Companies' business.  Many of these proceedings are covered in whole or
     in part by insurance.  At December 31, 1995 and March 31, 1996 (unaudited),
     management does not believe that the Companies' potential exposure related 
     to these matters would have a material adverse effect on the Companies' 
     financial position or results of operations.

19.  Shareholders' equity:

     At December 31, 1995, and March 31, 1996 (unaudited) common stock consists 
     of:

     USA Skate common stock, $0.10 par value, 
       100 shares authorized and outstanding                 $10 
     McMartin common stock, no par value,
       100 shares authorized and outstanding                   8

20.  Acquisition by USA Skate Corporation:

     Effective April 30, 1996, USA Skate and its subsidiaries were acquired by 
     USA Skate Corporation, a majority owned subsidiary of California Pro 
     Sports, Inc., pursuant to terms of the Purchase Agreement, which include 
     various provisions relating to the Companies' trademark licenses, bank debt
     and other agreements.  The existing Victoriaville and Vic trademark license
     agreements were terminated, and USA Skate entered into a license agreement 
     with the former controlling shareholder of USA Skate for the exclusive 
     worldwide rights to the Victoriaville and Vic trademarks (Note 3).

     USA Skate Corporation paid the outstanding indebtedness of USA Skate owed 
     to a bank as of April 30, 1996 (Note 7), and posted cash collateral for 
     outstanding letters of credit and bankers acceptances.  USA Skate 
     Corporation received statements terminating all security interests related
     to this indebtedness, and the former controlling shareholder of USA Skate 
     was released from guarantees and collateral.

     In connection with the termination of the existing loan agreement, USA 
     Skate entered into a new loan agreement with a bank for advances up to 75%
     of qualifying accounts receivable, 50% of qualifying inventories and 50% of
     outstanding letters of credit, with a maximum limit of $5,000,000, which
     expires in May 1999.  Loans under the agreement bear interest at 1% above
     the bank's prime rate and are due on demand.  The loan agreement provides 
     for financing fees of $100,000 upon initial disbursement and $50,000 
     annually.  The agreement contains certain financial covenants and 
     restrictions regarding payment of dividends, officers' compensation and
     consulting fees, as well as restrictions on USA Skate's loans and 
     investments.  Loans are collateralized by substantially all of USA Skate's
     assets and are guaranteed by USA Skate Corporation and certain of its
     affiliates and shareholders.

     USA Skate Corporation made a capital contribution of  $500,000 to Davtec,
     and the former controlling shareholder of USA Skate paid Davtec $165,000
     in return for a $125,000, 8% promissory note due December 31, 1996 and
     payment of a $40,000 outstanding receivable.  The proceeds of $665,000
     were used to reduce Davtec's indebtedness to the Canadian bank (Note 7).
     In connection with the payments, and subject to certain other terms and
     conditions, the Canadian bank agreed to extend the existing line of credit
     with Davtec through July 31, 1997.

     USA Skate entered into a one year employment agreement with the former
     controlling shareholder of USA Skate, that provides for annual compensation
     of $90,000.


                                                                           22

In May 1996, California Pro Sports, Inc. (the Registrant) through USA Skate
Corporation ("USA"), a newly formed majority owned subsidiary, acquired USA
Skate Co., Inc. and its subsidiaries in a transaction accounted for as a
purchase.  The significant subsidiaries of USA Skate Co., Inc. ("USA Skate") are
Les Equipements Sportifs Davtec Inc. ("Davtec") and 811300 Ontario Inc. (d/b/a
McMartin Hockey Protection) ("McMartin").  USA Skate, Davtec and McMartin are
collectively referred to as the "Companies" or the "Companies Being Acquired by
USA Skate Corporation."  The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated
balance sheet as of March 31, 1996 gives effect to the acquisition as if the
transaction had been consummated on March 31, 1996.  The accompanying pro forma
consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 1995 and
the three months ended March 31, 1996 give effect to the acquisition as if the
transaction had been consummated on January 1, 1995.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Companies Being
Acquired by USA Skate Corporation (included herein) and those of the Company. 
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements do not purport to be
indicative of the financial position  of the Company had the acquisition
occurred on March 31, 1996.  Nor do the unaudited pro forma financial statements
purport to be indicative of the results of operations that actually would have
occurred had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 1995 or to project the
Company's financial position or results of operations for any future period.
USA Skate Corporation has entered into a non-binding letter of intent with an
underwriter for a proposed public offering of its common stock which, if
completed, would reduce California Pro Sports, Inc.'s ownership interest in 
USA Skate Corporation to less than 50%.

The purchase method of accounting conforms the accounting policies followed by
the consolidated entities.  There were no accounting policy differences or other
items which required adjustment in the unaudited pro forma consolidated
financial statements.

Notes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet:

1.   To reflect the initial formation of USA Skate Corporation (USA) including
     the private placement of $1,061,600 of USA common stock and $2,515,000 of
     9% convertible promissory notes, the issuance of $1,080,000 of 9% notes
     payable to certain officers/shareholders, and the accrual of $100,000 of
     costs related to the stock placement and $236,800 of costs related to the
     debt placement.

2.   To reflect the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common
     stock of USA Skate Co., Inc. (USA Skate) with the consideration given

     stock of USA valued at $300,000, and finders fees, debt guarantee fees and
     other acquisition costs of $1,250,000 (of which $809,700 is accrued and
     $440,300 was paid in cash).  This adjustment also reflects a $665,000
     payment on Davtec's bank debt that was required to be made in connection
     with the acquisition.  Funding for the bank debt payment consisted of cash
     of $500,000, an 8% $125,000 note payable, and a $40,000 reduction of a note
     receivable from the former controlling shareholder of USA Skate.

3.   To reflect consulting and non-compete agreements entered into with the
     former controlling shareholder of USA Skate in consideration for the

     to reflect USA entering into a license agreement for the use of certain
     trademarks owned by the former controlling shareholder of USA Skate in
     exchange for minimum royalty payments due on or before December 2001 with
     an imputed (9.5%) present value of $2,213,235.

4.   To reflect the 36% minority ownership interest of USA at March 31, 1996.

     occurred on January 1, 1995.

     shareholder note; to record interest savings related to the $665,000
     reduction in Davtec bank debt; and to adjust expense for the terms of the
