Vol.12,No.2(2018)

Abstract

The article examines the motivation of consumers of professional sports clubs of football, hockey and floorball to visit matches. Despite the apparent small increase in long-term attendance in selected sports, the average number of visitors compared to foreign countries is significantly lower. This impact can have several aspects, ranging from the unappealing matches or the players themselves who are playing for the club. Bad pricing pricing policy of individual clubs and the lack of promotion of the match etc. To find out the results, a questionnaire survey was used during individual sports matches, processed and evaluated. The data has shown that the most frequent motives for visiting sports matches of selected sports are primarily the people who go to the match and then acquire the feeling of relaxation and the atmosphere associated with the given match. Ticket prices, even personalities and individuality of players who are playing for the club, don’t play a role in deciding process.
