The line graphs illustrate the average monthly expenditure on children’s sports between 2008 and 2014, along with participation levels in football, athletics and swimming over the same period.

Overall, spending on children’s sports rose steadily throughout the period. Football consistently had the highest participation, while athletics experienced the most dramatic fluctuation. Swimming showed a gradual upward trend.

Monthly spending increased from £20 in 2008 to £24 in 2010, before rising further to £28 in 2012 and reaching £32 in 2014. This indicates a continuous and moderate growth in expenditure over the six-year period.

In terms of participation, football remained the most popular sport, with the number of children rising slightly from 8.2 million in 2008 to 9.0 million in 2014, despite a minor dip in 2010. Swimming participation also grew steadily, increasing from 2.0 million to 3.8 million.

By contrast, athletics started at a relatively low level of 0.8 million in 2008 and increased marginally to 1.2 million in 2010, before surging to 5.0 million in 2012. However, this figure declined slightly to 4.5 million by 2014.
