ok, for an assignment (sports in society), i need to find statistics for 3 different sports. so i've chosen rugby, football and sailing.

i need to find out both national and local (england and dorset) statistics for:

-how many participate in each sport
-how many are employed in each sport
-how much money is made through each sport.

can anybody help me with this or tell me where i can find info?

i've allready emailed sport england and my local sport development officer but id be grateful if anyone has any information at all they could share.

thanks

well i watch them all, and i play football, if thats any help, other wise google it

you can try http://www.soccerstats.com
but this has stuff on attendance, i gather you're looking for participation (ie. recreational football).

there also this one: http://stats.football365.com/

cheers, i'll check em out tomorow when i'll work on my assignment.

but yea, ive tryed websites like the fa's official one but it doesnt really give me the stats i want..

i hate reports..this is only a tiny bit of the work going into it. gay. it'll end up about 25 page slong i bet..and thats only 1 out of 4 tasks. i'm too lazy for this shit..
