The global sports protective equipment market size is expected to reach USD 12.1 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., expanding at a CAGR of 4.4% over the forecast period. The market is expected to witness significant growth owing to growing popularity of sports activities in schools and colleges.
Increasing popularity of outdoor games such as soccer and American football is expected to increase the demand for sports protective gears over the forecast period. Moreover, increasing number of sports leagues and outlets is expected to provide growth opportunities for the market in the coming years. In addition, sports clubs are raising awareness among people by conducting events at various places across the world, which will have a positive impact on the sports protective equipment market growth.
For instance, since 2007, the National Football League (NFL), one of the most popular sporting leagues in U.S., has organized several events in London to increase awareness regarding American football. In 2017, NFL organized four game events in London and around 84,500 fans came to watch the match between Jacksonville Jaguars and Baltimore Ravens at Wembley Stadium.
In 2018, the head and headgear product segment dominated the market and is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period. The growth is attributed to increasing awareness regarding head injuries. For instance, Phillip Joel Hughes was an Australian Test and One Day International (ODI) cricketer who played domestic cricket for South Australia and Worcestershire, died during the match due to head injury, which has created awareness among the young enthusiastic players. Leg protection gears are expected to register the highest CAGR of 5.6% from 2019 to 2025. The segment growth is attributed to increase in the number of participants in individual sports, such as mixed martial arts, cycling, boxing, and skating.
