The first chart below gives information about the money spent by

British parents on their children’s sports between 2008 and 2014.

The second chart shows the number of children who participated in

three sports in Britain over the same time period.

The graphs present the data of children sport spending trend monthly in the UK from 2008 to 2014, and the number of children football, athletics, and swimming participants during the same period.

In general, there was an upward trend in the number of sport participants over time and the money spending pattern appeared to reflect this trend.

Football would appear to be the most attractive sport for children with the number of players always ranked highest among three sports. However, there was only a slight increase in the number of football participants, which rose from 7.5 million in 2014 to a high of approximately 9 million in 2014. Swimming seemed to keep its attraction quite steady with children, stably rose from under 2.5 million participants in 2008 to roughly 3 million by 2014. By contrast, the number of children registering for athletics had a remarkable double raise, turning it from the least favorite one before 2010 to the second popular sport following football after 2011. The participant number of athletics even reached a peak of 5 million in 2012 before slightly tailing off.

Regarding the sport spending trend, a steadily continuous increase has been shown during the recorded period, rising from only 20 pounds per month for a child in 2008 to an over of 30 pounds on average at the period end
