簡介目錄

千禧一代和 Z 世代是隨著 IT 熱潮成長起來的兩個不同的世代。千禧一代是指 1981 年至 1996 年之間出生的人，而 Z 世代則包括 1997 年至 2010 年之間出生的人。兩者都是體育轉播的重要目標，在巨大的技術發展中提高這一群體的身份對激發人們對體育的興趣提出了獨特的挑戰。

雖然前幾代人對親身觀看比賽或在傳統有線電視上觀看比賽更感興趣，但年輕一代更有可能利用現代流媒體選項。我來了。體育機構和聯盟不得不通過啟動和增強他們自己的流媒體服務來適應。

年輕觀眾觀看體育賽事的方式發生了明顯變化，他們消費新聞和分析的方式也發生了變化。許多人傾向於免費內容，例如播客、YouTube 分析視頻和比賽集錦。最終，年輕一代傾向於可以快速消費並以簡潔的方式傳達重要信息的無障礙內容。

科技行業的許多領導者都很看重體育運動的流行及其帶來的商機。隨著虛擬現實 (VR)、增強現實 (AR) 和元宇宙等領域的發展，這種趨勢將變得更加明顯。 Metaverse 在未來幾年內不會大放異彩，但一旦出現，Z 世代想要在虛擬世界中與朋友共度時光的與生俱來的渴望將變得重要。

在這份報告中，我們分析了千禧一代和 Z 一代等體育運動的流行程度和市場趨勢），體育觀看/參與趨勢的變化，以及行業利益相關者應採取的應對措施。

An analysis of how sport is viewed amongst millennials and gen Z, and how the sphere of sports viewership has changed.

Millennials and Gen Z are two different generations that both grew up alongside the technology boom. Millennials are considered to have been born between 1981 and 1996, while Gen Z is considered to be comprised of people born between 1997 to 2010. Both of these demographics are key targets for live sports, and the growing uniqueness of these groups during an age of enormous technological developments has presented unique challenges in getting them interested in sport.

While previous generations were much more interested in physically attending games or watching on traditional cable TV, younger generations are much more inclined to use modern streaming options. Growing up with widely accessible content has made younger people more likely to use these options, and sporting organizations and leagues have had to adjust to this by launching and increasing their own streaming capabilities.

While the way that young viewers watch sport has obviously changed, they also consume news and analysis differently. Many will gravitate towards free sources of content including podcasts, analysis videos on YouTube, and quick highlights for games. Ultimately, younger generations gravitate towards accessible content that can be consumed quickly, and that concisely conveys important information.

Many leaders in the tech space are correctly identifying the popularity of sport, and the business opportunities this can bring them. Given how tech-savvy younger generations are, there is a necessity for these companies to appeal to them, and this will become more apparent and evident as developments occur in spaces such as virtual reality, augmented reality, and the metaverse. While major developments in the metaverse are unlikely to happen in the next couple of years, Gen Z's innate willingness to spend time with their friends in a virtual world will be crucial once the metaverse comes to fruition.

Key Highlights

Newzoo's Generations report, released in August 2021 had several intriguing insights about millennials and Gen Z concerning gaming habits. According to the research, at least 25% of Gen Z's leisure time is spent on gaming, with both millennials and Gen Z spending significantly more time on the habit than older generations. Additionally, an extraordinary 81% of Gen Z have reported playing games while 70% of millennials have reported the same, while 70% of millennials and 69% of Gen Z had spent money on games in the six months before the study. The average playtime per week for Gen Z is seven hours and 20 minutes, with the average millennial playing time clocking in at 30 minutes fewer than this. Unsurprisingly, there is a significant overlap between people who play and watch games, with 71% of Gen Z doing both, as opposed to 67% of millennials. For younger gamers, content creators within the gaming industry are an ideal to strive towards, with platforms such as YouTube and Twitch allowing gamers to begin building their brands and engaging with audiences from a young age. In addition, 40% of Gen Z and 37% of millennials reported using gaming as a social exercise, with many gamers interested in playing games simply to spend time with their friends.
As younger generations become interested in sport, viewing patterns will shift somewhat. Nowadays, many younger viewers are more interested in streaming games online, with many watching multiple games at once. The accessibility with which many can access different events now is in stark contrast to before the turn of the century when some games were not televised at all. Programs like Red Zone for the NFL tap into this idea, as it keeps track of all the Sunday NFL games being played simultaneously. Many younger viewers will create setups at home where they can watch multiple sporting events at once on different screens, partially because younger people are often interested in a greater variety of sports than previous generations.
Now, with rights split across so many different channels and platforms, watching sports from home is not as consumer friendly as it used to be, with many fans needing multiple subscriptions to keep up, which is partially what helps make streaming so appealing. Having all a competition or team's games in one spot makes things significantly easier to keep track of a result. In terms of using streaming platforms, younger people are the primary purveyors of OTT platforms, and according to research, these age groups are more receptive to advertising. AdTech company Freewheel revealed that OTT viewers finished up to 98% of advertisements. This means that OTT platforms provide advertisers with a potentially large audience that is willing to consume advertisements. Potential technological developments in machine learning and artificial intelligence could also help dictate advertising models in the future, as companies look to home in on specific target audiences even more.
