NSGA Sports Participation Report Shows Recovery From COVID-19 In Some Areas

 


Easing COVID-19 restrictions, allowing consumers to return to traditional activities in 2021, were reflected in the ten segments tracked for the 2022 edition of the National Sporting Goods Association (NSGA) U.S. Sports Participation Report.

The report shows that participation in three categories increased, four decreased and three remained relatively flat compared to 2020.

According to the NSGA measure of total holdings, growth segments include indoor sports (+7.6 percent), individual sports (+6.6 percent) and fitness activities (+1.7 percent). Segments that are declining include shooting sports (-6.6 percent), face-to-face contact sports (-4.5 percent) and cycling (-3.2 percent). Snow sports (-0.1 percent), outdoor sports (-0.3 percent), team sports (-0.6 percent) and open water sports (-0.6 percent) remained relatively flat.

“It wasn’t a surprise to see some segments rebound in 2021 as people became more accustomed to living with COVID-19,” said Nick Rigitano, NSGA’s director of Insights and Analytics. “People were able to return to some of their typical workout routines, indoor swimming pools and bowling centers, and that was reflected in the three segments, which showed growth after a year of decline in 2020. Team sports declined only slightly in 2021 after a experienced a significant drop of -6.4 percent in 2020.”

Rigitano added: “Some of the segments that declined showed significant increases a year ago, such as Wheel Sports (+15.5% in 2020) and Shooting Sports (+3.0). It will be interesting to see how these areas develop in the coming years.”

The increase in the Indoor Sports segment was driven by increases in billiards/pool, darts and table tennis. Individual sports saw a rebound in bowling and swimming and continued pickleball growth of plus-25 percent. Fitness activities saw an increase in exercise, walking and equipment training, offset by a slight decrease in running/jogging and a sustained decrease in working out at a club, gym or fitness studio.

The team sports category remained relatively flat, seeing softball and volleyball rise and bounce back to near pre-pandemic levels. Those gains were offset by declines in baseball, basketball and tackle football.
A decline in off-road mountain biking fueled the decline of Wheel Sports.

Decreases hurt individual contact sports in wrestling, and martial arts/MMA/Taekwondo and shooting sports were negatively impacted by decreases in target archery and firearms hunting.

The report tracks 56 sports and recreational activities with this year’s additions to cardio fitness and strength training.
