Your suggesting that there is a sport out there right now that more than 10% of the global population plays?

Cause Soccer certainly isn’t played at that scale.



currently plays obv you're right, but played ever? i bet it's over 10%. youth soccer participation is over 50% in most of europe and north america and while it's hard to find statistics for africa and south america for organized play for casual play i would be shocked if it was lower than the organized play rate for north america
