The relationship between AFL season-ticket holder satisfaction and sponsor-related behaviour

Abstract

In a sporting context, it has been acknowledged that fan attention and response to sponsorship is affected by a range of variables, including the duration of sponsorship and fan commitment to the sporting organisation. The results of surveys of the members of five AFL clubs indicated that there is a positive relationship between the satisfaction level of season-ticket holders and their orientation toward club sponsors&rsquo; products and brands. Despite the weak relationships found in this research, the results suggest that more satisfied season-ticket holders will seek to use club sponsors&rsquo; products, and this is yet another reason to manage the satisfaction of customers.<br /
