Cougar Park attendances : Mon Apr 27, 2015 8:24 pm  

Would interesting if HT could find time post details of home match attendances for the past few years and keep it up-to-date match by match from now on.
Great to see crowds going up with the North Wales home match attendance being over a thousand.
HOPE THE CLUB CAN OFFER ADVANCE PURCHASE REDUCED PRICE TICKETS AGAIN FOR EVERY MATCH.
Together with a winning team that would keep the crowd numbers going up.

I tried doing this last season comparing on the season before attendances but due to a combination of being busy and being lazy i stopped doing it.

Just as a comparison on the last match Keighley v North Wales 2014 attendance 893 Championship
Keighley v North Wales 2015 attendance 1011 Championship 1

13.2% increase on last year (which was obviously in the higher division)

So that looks good.

If HT can send me some attendance figures from the last couple of seasons I can do some comparisons. Slightly difficult this season as we are playing a lot of new teams. But I'll give it a go.

Re: Cougar Park attendances : Tue Apr 28, 2015 2:50 pm  

I've found the website where I can get the attendances.

Only other comparable one so far this season is York at home

3 4 2015 Keighley v York 903
17 3 2013 Keighley v York 739

Another increase

Other factors to take consideration of are:-
2015 was in 3rd tier 2013 was 2nd tier
2015 was on a friday 2013 was a sunday.

Give me a couple of weeks and i'll get some facts and figures ready.

Right its not taken me as long as I thought but I now have a record of all league home matches (no challenge cup or northern rail) since 2010, with averages for the seasons.

On the North Wales match having a crowd of over 1000 that is the 18th time we have had over 1000 in 59 matches since 2010.

I now have a complete record of attendance figures starting from 2009 for all league matches played at Cougar Park.

I'll do some comparisons on upcoming homes matches as they come along just for interests sake.

If anyone wants to know any attandance stats just let me know what you want.

What was the last crowd at Cougars the last time we played Oldham Roughlads?

Re: Cougar Park attendances : Tue Jun 02, 2015 2:20 pm  

Last Oldham match was 3rd April 2011 and crowd was 995, and we won 40-14

Re: Cougar Park attendances : Tue Jun 02, 2015 3:40 pm  

So not much in the crowds then?
