[edit] Info

  • Sport Attendance figures for different countries.
  • At the moment, data very incomplete
  • Also see Sports attendances
  • In Leagues, there are not "rounds" as such, one team may have played ten games when another team in the same league has played only eight.
  • For statistical purposes, A round of games is the total of every team in the league playing one match each.
  • "Total attendance per round" is calculated by multiplying the average attendance by the number of matches per round (half the number of teams in that league).
  • "Popularity" is calculated by taking the Total attendance per round and dividing it by the Population of the country; i.e, it represents the percentage of the country that has attended a match, during a round of matches in that league, Assuming people on the whole don't watch two different matches within one round of games (as is very unusual)
  • Number of Rounds does not include playoff games. In most leagues, each team plays each other twice, once at home and once away.
  • Countries sorted by "Visits per season per person" as a total of all leagues and sports in each country.
