Opinions on dealing with major sports events affected by COVID-19 2020, by age

During a representative survey of the British adult population, undertaken between the 16th and 17th March 2020, when asked about their preferred approach to dealing with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on any sports leagues, competitions or tournaments that have been suspended or paused, for most age groups the largest share of the respondents hold the opinion that if the competition is suspended for more than a month, it should be abandoned for this season or year, however the opintion is divided as to whether or not there should be winners or losers recognised with a larger share of respondents suggesting that there should be no winners or losers recognised. Within the 25-34 year old age group the 45 percent of respondents hold the opinion that the competition should be completed at a later date, this is equal to the collective share of respondents within this age group that indicated the competitions should be abandoned.

在2020年3月16日至17日对英国成年人口进行的代表性调查中，当被问及他们处理因COVID-19疫情导致任何暂停或中止的体育联赛、比赛或锦标赛影响的偏好方法时，对于大多数年龄群体而言，大部分受访者认为，如果比赛暂停超过一个月，则应放弃本赛季或本年度的比赛，然而，关于是否应承认胜者或败者的问题意见分歧，其中更多的受访者建议不应承认胜者或败者。在25-34岁年龄组中，45%的受访者认为比赛应在日后完成，这与认为应放弃比赛的同年龄组受访者的总份额相等。
