The concept of ‘digital natives’ is broadly understood, but its impact on the sporting industry is less so. An accepted wisdom is that sport is losing young fans – but is this a problem of interest or accessibility?
According to new research, younger fans remain even more enthusiastic and open to engagement with sport than previous generations. Only their methods of consumption have changed. To gain their loyalty, sports organisations must find better ways to reach and connect with them, which means changing, adapting and planning for a future in which most fans are digitally inclined.
