The American Football market within the sports industry in South Africa is experiencing significant growth, fueled by rising interest in digital media and online services. Factors such as the average growth rate and increasing demand for convenient options are driving this growth.
Customer preferences: The American Football Media Market has seen a significant rise in live streaming and online content consumption. With the increasing use of mobile devices and social media, fans can now access game highlights, analysis, and real-time updates anytime and anywhere. This shift in consumer behavior is fueled by the younger generations desire for instant and personalized information. Additionally, the influence of European football and its media coverage has also played a role in shaping consumer expectations for a more immersive and interactive viewing experience.
Trends in the market: In South Africa, there is a growing trend of streaming American football games on mobile devices and online platforms, leading to an increase in digital content consumption. In the United States, social media platforms are becoming a popular avenue for sports media companies to engage with fans and promote their content. This trend is significant as it allows for a more personalized and interactive experience for consumers. It also presents opportunities for brands to reach a targeted audience. However, it also raises concerns about copyright and licensing agreements. For stakeholders in the American football media market, it is crucial to stay updated on these trends and adapt to the evolving digital landscape to remain competitive.
Local special circumstances: In South Africa, the American Football media market is largely influenced by the countrys history of racial segregation and its impact on sports. Despite recent efforts to diversify traditional sports media coverage, American football still struggles to gain a strong foothold. Meanwhile, in the United States, American football enjoys a large and devoted fan base, fueled by intense competition and a strong sense of community. These cultural differences greatly shape the media landscape surrounding American football, with South Africa often focusing on local players and stories while the US emphasizes star athletes and high-stakes games.
Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The American Football Media Market within the Sports Market is heavily influenced by macroeconomic factors such as consumer spending, advertising budgets, and overall economic growth. Countries with robust economies and high levels of disposable income, such as the United States, have a larger base of potential consumers and higher demand for advertising on American football media platforms. Additionally, government policies on media ownership and regulations on broadcasting rights can also impact the market in a given country. Moreover, global economic trends, such as changes in consumer behavior and shifts in advertising strategies, can significantly shape the performance of the American Football Media Market in both South Africa and the United States.
Data coverage:
The data encompasses B2B revenues. Figures are based on media spending from businesses to several clubs. That also includes the revenues from advertising as this is part of media and broadcasting contracts the individual clubs have with their respective leagues.Modeling approach / Market size:
Market sizes are determined through a top-down approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per ticket, price on sport goods). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet consumption. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.Forecasts:
In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function or linear forecasting, as it fits the development of either strong growing markets or more sophistacted and saturated markets, such as soccer in Europe.Additional notes:
The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is considered at a country-specific level. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development). We also account for the different cycles of international tournaments, such as world cups or continent cups. Consumer Insights data is reweighted for representativeness.Mon - Fri, 9am - 6pm (EST)
