The first chart below gives information about the money spent by British parents on their children’s sports between 2008 and 2014. The second chart shows the number of children who participated in three sports in Britain over the same time period.

One of the line graphs illustrates the data about how much money parents in Britain spent on children’s sporting activities over a 6-year period, starting from 2008. The other graph compares how many children took part in football, athletics, and swimming over the same period. Overall, what stands out from the graph is that the amount of average money spent each month on children’s sports had an upward trend. And another interesting feature is that the number of children who participated in football was always higher than athletics and swimming. In 2008, British parents spent approximately £20 on children’s sporting activities. In the next 6 years, the amount of money that parents paid for that increased dramatically and reached a peak at over £30 in the year 2014. As can be seen in the second chart, starting at approximately 8 million children in 2008, the number of students who took part in football increased significantly to reach a peak at nearly 9 million children in 2014. While there were 2 million children who participated in swimming in 2008, exceeding the quantity of athletics, which had only a half of million children. The period between 2008 and 2014 witnessed a double increase in the quantity of children who took part in swimming, from 2 million to 4 million. The number of students participating in athletics remained unchanged in the first two years before experiencing a remarkable rise and peaked at 5 million in 2012. After that, it decreased slightly and finished at 4. 8 million.
