Overall, football was by far the most popular in all three years, as opposed to golf which experienced far less popularity. While the percentages of those keen on football, swimming and rugby increased slightly over the given ten years, the figures for snooker, tennis and golf saw drops of varying degrees.

In terms of sports which became more common, as opposed to all of the other sports, football was the only one that failed to decline in popularity at any point, rising steadily from 41% to 45% over the ten-year period. The proportion of swimmers experienced a seven-percent rise to around 28% in 2000, followed by a negligible drop to about 26% in 2005 when the same percentage of those playing rugby was recorded, despite a previous drop to around 18% in 2000.

Regarding sports whose popularity declined, snooker ranked second in 2000, at 30%, but latter came fourth in the chart, due to a significant decline to about 23% in 2005. Similarly, nearly 30% of respondents said they played tennis in the first surveyed year; however, their participation rate dropped to 22% in both 2000 and 2005.
