What Are Key Factors Driving The Demand In The Global Athletic Footwear Market?
The athletic footwear market is projected to expand, fuelled by an increase in the number of sports tournaments. These tournaments, where large swaths of players compete to determine a winner using a particular format, are seeing a surge in individual participation. People are increasingly entering local or region-wide contests to show off their talents and make a name for themselves on the international arena representing their nations. To ensure a safe and competitive environment, participants in these sports events, both professionals and aficionados, are required to wear athletic shoes. For example, the England and Wales Cricket Board, the controlling body for cricket, reported that about 2.6 million people played cricket in 2022, with nearly 1.4 million players under 16 as per the data from May 2023. The emergence of young cricket fans has been fostered by ECB's nationwide campaigns, ""All Stars Cricket"" and ""Dynamos Cricket,"" which, in 2022, attracted over 100,000 participants for the second year in a row, enhancing the sport's appeal among novices. Consequently, the upswing in sports tournaments is set to fuel the growth of the athletic footwear market in the projected timeframe.
