When attending a sports venue as fun as they might be there is a lot that could go wrong when you pack a stadium with over 50,000 people. To keep these large crowds under control, its best to have a series of steps to follow and of things to have in case of an incident. Maintaining a save environment in a stadium first requires Risk Avoidance. Risk Avoidance is the ability to spot a risky situation and avoid it. This is the easiest and most effective way to avoid serious injury or incident. For example, if you see a foul ball coming toward you at a baseball game and you have to lean over the railing to get it. Don’t lean over the railing. This goes for situations like parking too. Things like walking in well-lit areas after leaving game or
In Gabriel Baumgaertner ‘s article titled MLB Must Mandate Expanded Protective Netting Before It’s Too Late, the author will argue as to why all baseball parks should have protective netting installed in all in front of lower level seating. It will also provide a strong reasons as to why players agree with protective netting. This paper will provide recent incidents of in detail of fans being struck by a hit ball that. Baumgaertner’s valid evidence will help support his argument and prove how important it is for Major League Baseball to make protective netting mandatory in the lower seating are of all ballparks before another fan gets killed.

Amazingly, when I am at the stadium, I also see a lot of people I know even though I am two hours away from home. Everyone loves Neyland Stadium. I love the fact that everyone comes together to cheer for one team and act excited to attend. This makes the game intense because when the game takes a bad turn, everyone joins in a giant roar against the referees. After you become a true fan, you begin to take those bad calls personally. You can thing of your trip as an adventure into a land which normally can only be seen on TV. You leave the stadium with a warm tingle in the pit of your stomach, of course if they win. You can feel good about yourself knowing that you played a part in the team achieving their victory.
College football is a major part of many peoples' lives, especially here in the South. Whether we or someone we know is an alumni, we plan to go there in the future we think the uniforms are cute, or whatever reason, we always have one favorite team we cheer for. sometimes fans of a team will wear a shirt with the team's logo and that is as far as their loyalty goes. Others may attend a few games a season, but there are also those die hard fans that never miss a game or always tailgating, screaming at the refs, and have the team's fight song as their ringtone. While all that may seem a little overboard, there are people believe it or not, who take their team devotion as far as killing to show their devotion to their favorite team. Having team spirit is one thing, but when lines are crossed and people begin causing major problems, security should be tightened at games, even if colleges have to change a few things to pay for the extra help.

High School football games are one of the most exciting events of the year. Games like the homecoming games or rivalry games are always packed. The student section is very lively. The cheerleaders will be chanting louder than ever. When the team scores a touchdown the chants grow louder, players as well as fans screaming in joy. It is such a great atmosphere. There is so much energy at their games. If only this were true for other sports basketball excluded, because this is also seen at basketball games. Other sports like soccer, tennis, baseball, etc don’t get this type of atmosphere at their games. As a two year varsity athlete for both soccer and baseball I have experienced this problem. The atmosphere is very dull and unexciting. The game will start with little to no people in the stands. There are no cheerleaders

It is widely known how powerful the personal experience can be regarding the recognition of risk and the eagerness to take to take precautions.

The notable risk management precaution that are even found in most sporting event is the provision of security, I had the chance to talk the president and some of the organizer and the brief me own how they made a legal compliance that contains the competition rules. Successful organizers for sporting events, usually manage risk rather than avoiding it and this legal compliance step is a key to a safer and enjoyable, it eradicates bad habits like; spectator yelling and insulting officiators and the player, fighting and abusive languages between spectators etc. the team board including took a bigger step like incorporating key steps that could be followed if risk should be limited.

The disaster that took place at the Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield during a match between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest on 15 April 1989 is one which significantly shaped the way society thinks and acts in many ways. 96 Liverpool fans died and 766 injured as a result of a human crush when "one part of the stadium was dangerously over-crowded" (Nauright, J Parrish, C. 2012). Consequently, The Taylor report, written by Lord Taylor in 1990, was devised and includes seventy-six recommendations on how football matches should be run. This essay will look at how the catastrophe resulted in the development of football stadiums across the UK and the measures put in place.
Fans are at a huge risk of injury by doing this, to themselves and the stewards at the game. A push or a fall in these over cramped sections would result in serious harm or death. So why are these authorities deluded to think that the seating is a positive aspect for football grounds? Statistics show that seating areas are not safer than all standing areas, meaning the argument that standing causes “hooligan behaviour” or an “unsafe environment” is completely not proven, invalid and irrelevant. FSF (Football Supporters Federation) carried out a survey in 2009.
