Sports survey

The English may be obsessed with sport but for half the population this only involves picking up the TV remote control. A study of nearly 364,000 people by Sport England reveals half of the adult population does no exercise at all. The survey reveals just one in five adults do sport or recreational activities for thirty minutes every week. The top three activities are walking, swimming and going to the gym. Amongst the more minority sports, nearly a million people play badminton at least once a month, compared to netball which has just over 150,000 regular players. Pilates is a growing activity with nearly 300,000 participants.

The results also show a general difference between the north and the south of the country. It seems that more sport is played in the south than in the north. Sports participation is lowest in the poorest parts of the country. These results might make the government improve sport facilities in poor areas. However, individuals must start to take responsibility for their health. More men take part in sport than women. 27.3 per cent compared with 18.5 per cent. Sue Tiballs of the Women’s Sports Foundation said the results were shocking. «Media coverage dedicated to women’s sport is almost non-existent. We are concerned that the number of women taking part will remain at these worrying levels.» (extract from Sports Review)
