Japan professional women’s football league Business analysis
Introduction
▶This year marks the third year since the professional women’s football league was established in Japan. In this report, we will analyze the past two years from a business perspective and look at what is happening in Japan today.
▶The three main sources of revenue for professional leagues are matchdays, sponsorships, and broadcasting. In addition to these, this report looks at the league’s social role.
▶Currently, the league’s primary focus is on matchday attendance. We would like to see this compared not only with the numbers of the Japanese professional leagues but also with the English leagues, which have had great success in recent years. They achieved Japan’s target of an average attendance of 5,000 last season, and I would like to look at how they have made such a leap from a situation that was not much different from Japan’s five years ago.
▶In the women’s football world, which is currently experiencing significant growth worldwide, Japan is lagging behind when compared to other strong nations. We would like to explore the reasons for this with quantitative analysis and find hints for future growth.
