PRO12 crowds up at Liberty

Guinness PRO12 crowds at the Liberty Stadium were up for the third consecutive year as almost 100,000 people went through the turnstiles at the Liberty to watch the competition this season.

99,291 supporters attended 11 Championship games at the home of the Ospreys throughout 2016/17, a figure second only to 2012/13 in the seven seasons since the PRO12 was expanded to 12 teams following the entry of two Italian sides to the competition in 2010.

That year, buoyed by a two for one season membership deal and off the back of the 2011/12 title win, 102,005 watched the Ospreys at the Liberty, at an average of 9,273, slightly ahead of this season’s 9,026 average.

While it is always difficult to compare like for like attendances in the competition due to the fluctuating fixture schedule and international clashes, the continued growth and strong performance gives cause for satisfaction as we look to build on these figures again next season.
