The table chart presents the percentage of men and women involved in various sports from 2005/06 to 2008/09 in the UK.
Generally, we can see that swimming or diving was the preferred activity by both genders, while the activity with the lowest rate of partaking in the time period considered, is jogging, cross-country, and road running.
Undoubtedly between 2005/06 and 2008/09, the most favored activities were indoors, nevertheless, the table shows that the number of people involved in such activities slowly declined over time as men started with a percentage of 13. 3 and arrived, in the last year taken into consideration, with a quota of 13. 0; likewise, the percentage of women, which is still higher than men’s, decreased from 18. 0 to 16. 5.
On the other hand, the percentage of both genders in jogging activities rose from 6. 9 to 7. 6 for males and from 3. 5 to 4. 8 for females, even if it’s still the lowest number presented in the table.
An increase can be seen also in the percentage of men taking part in cycling, whereas the number of women engaged in the same kind of activity gradually decreased.
