Assessment Of Crowd Management Strategies Used For Football Events In Government-Owned Sports Stadia In Nairobi County, Kenya

ABSTRACT

Spectator violence in stadiums is part of a larger set of problems related to

misbehaviour in football and it has resulted into deaths and injuries during football

events, especially where rival football clubs are playing. This is especially exacerbated

government-owned sports stadia in Nairobi County, Kenya.

The management strategies the study sought to assess were mainly on security

NNS (30,000) was estimated at 90,000.

Stratified random sampling technique was used to select the respondents, to ensure a

fair representation of all the target groups. Self-administered questionnaire was used to

collect data. The data collected was summarized into descriptive statistics of

frequencies and percentages. Data presentation was carried out using graphs, barcharts,
