“…Accordingly, watching successes of the male national football team increases football participation at the grassroots level [74]. A similar effect was evident for watching games of the 2002 Football World Cup on TV [58]. Likewise, watching successes of the German national football team on TV was found to increase the participation frequency of already active participants [30], supporting the motivational part of the TDE.…”

“…In addition, spectating at a half marathon in Poland had a positive effect on people's willingness to participate in sport and running after the event [79]. Likewise, inspiration from spectating at the 2002 Football World Cup was found to have a positive effect on immediate football participation [58].…”

“…Specifically, the realist synthesis analysis identified the following six conditions under which TDE have been evident: Event leveraging activities (e.g., [54][55][56]); capacity of community sport to cater for new participants (e.g., [47,57]; youth populations (e.g., [11,51,52]); live spectator experiences (e.g., [58,59]); consumption possibility of sports/events in the media or on television (e.g., [24,50]), and communities housing event venues (e.g., [15,16,60]). The most frequently identified condition was event leveraging activities (24%), followed by the capacity of community sport to cater to new participants (22%) and the presence of youth populations (17%).…”

“…Several studies suggest that live spectating facilitates the occurrence of TDE (e.g., [10,58,59,72,[79][80][81]. Specifically, [10] hypothesized that what people think about, and what they feel while immersed in a spectator experience, can have a profound influence on post-event decisions to participate.…”

Conditions under Which Trickle-Down Effects Occur: A Realist Synthesis Approach

Policy makers often legitimize bids for major sport events and public funding of elite sports by trickle-down effects, suggesting that hosting events, sporting success, and athlete role models inspire the population to participate themselves in sport and physical activity. According to previous review articles, empirical evidence of trickle-down effects are mixed, with several studies citing marginal or no effect. The purpose of this study is to apply a realist synthesis approach to evaluate under which conditions trickle-down effects occur (i.e., what works for whom under which circumstances?). Using rapid evidence assessment methodology, 58 empirical articles were identified in the search process and critically analyzed through the lens of realist synthesis evaluation. The analysis identified six conditions under which trickle-down effects have occurred: Event leveraging initiatives, capacity of community sport to cater for new participants, live spectating experiences, consumption possibilities on television or other media, and communities housing event venues. The findings have implications for the sustainability of sport policy decisions and public finance, as the likelihood of trickle-down effects increases with integrated planning and sustainable spending related to the above six conditions.

“…Moreover, the 2002 FIFA World Cup was the first to be hosted by more than one nation, signifying the uniqueness or importance of this tournament compared to other World Cup events. Therefore, considering the importance of the trickle-down effect within a mega-sporting event ( Hahm et al, 2020 ; Potwarka and Wicker, 2021 ), further studies are needed to identify the factors triggering the trickle-down effect in the context of the 2002 FIFA World Cup.…”

The 2002 FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan significantly promoted football in the host countries. However, it remains unclear how the event has changed mass football (soccer in North America) participation. This study applies points of attachment (POA)—a well-developed concept in the field of sport management—to the 2002 FIFA World Cup and aims to examine which specific POA promoted football participation frequency immediately after the event and the present frequency of football participation in the host countries. An online questionnaire survey was conducted in South Korea (n = 405) and Japan (n = 398). The samples included adults aged > 19 as of the hosting date of the 2002 World Cup. Hierarchical regression analyses were performed to test all the datasets by employing four POAs (players, coaches, national teams, and football) as independent variables. Multiple control variables (e.g., nationality and age) and two dependent variables (football participation frequency immediately after the event and the present frequency of football participation) were included in the model. Correspondingly, those who had a higher attachment to each point during the event showed a higher frequency of football participation immediately after the event. In contrast, only two POAs (players and coaches) led to a higher frequency of present football participation. These findings provide the first empirical evidence highlighting the influence of the 2002 FIFA World Cup on mass football participation depending on the POA.
