This was the first increase since 2008. Combined attendance fell 2.9% in 2011, 0.1% in 2010, and 3.8% in 2009. The 204 post-season NAPBL games drew 666,348, an average of 3,266 per game. Attendance data was available for 46 independent league post-season games, and they drew 110,241, an average of 2,397. 10 NAPBL All-Star games drew a combined 92,930. In 2012, there were 2 more NAPBL teams, and the same number of independent league teams who reported attendance, as in 2011. These teams had 188 more playing dates overall in 2012. NAPBL leagues had a combined 167 more dates, and the independent leagues had a combined 21 more dates in 2012 than in 2011. Figures exclude the Freedom Baseball League which played 83 dates, but did not report attendance. Combined 2012 NAPBL/Independent average attendance per date was 3,710, down 29 from 2011. The 15 NAPBL Leagues that charge admission to their games drew 41,280,382, which is a gain of 28,329 (0.1%) from 2011. The 2 additional teams in 2012 (Aguascalientes and Carmen of the Mexican League) drew a combined 386,557. The other 174 teams actually had a combined decrease of 358,228. These 15 leagues averaged 3,967 per date, down 62 from 2011. The 55 teams in the 6 independent leagues that reported attendance drew 7,127,934, up 297,157 (4.4%) from 2011. Their average per date rose by 92 to 2,697. The increase in overall Minor League attendance is impressive when taking into account the improving, but still sluggish, economy. Some very hot weather certainly cut crowds for part of the summer in many places, even though the number of dates played was up. ‘MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL’ (Major League Affiliated Leagues – Formerly NAPBL) In the recent past, attendance was helped by team relocations and new ballparks. But only one completely new park (in Pensacola) opened in 2012, and there were only 2 net team moves. Carolina (Zebulon, NC) of the Southern League moved to Pensacola. Kinston of the Carolina League replaced the team in Carolina, so the net move was Kinston to Pensacola. Casper of the Pioneer League moved to Grand Junction. Due to a complete reconstruction of their park, Scranton-Wilkes Barre of the International League played their home games in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Pawtucket, Lehigh Valley, and Batavia. 5 NAPBL leagues had increases in total attendance in 2012. The Mexican League posted the best total and percentage increases, up 492,319 (14.8%), as they added 2 teams in 2012. If you compare only the 14 Mexican League teams that operated in both 2012 and 2011, their gain in total attendance is 105,762. The Midwest League had a 101,061 increase. Pioneer League attendance rose 3.6%, and their gain of 88 in average per date was the best among all MLB affiliated leagues. The Carolina and Appalachian Leagues were the only other NAPBL leagues to have an increase in average per date. The Carolina League set new highs for total attendance and average per date. Total attendance rose 87,450, a gain of 4.9%. Average per date was up 74 to a record-high 3,522. International League total attendance declined 159,620, the worst drop in total attendance of any NAPBL league. The Florida State League had the largest percentage dip in total attendance, down 6.3%, with 27 fewer dates played in 2012 than in 2011. The International League also had the biggest decrease in average per date, down 257. Mexican League average per date was down 226. 171 NAPBL teams played in the same market in 2012 as in 2011. Total attendance rose for 67 teams in 2012, and fell for 104 teams. 87 teams increased their total attendance in 2011, while 86 teams had declines. 83 teams had gains in 2010, with 90 showing a decline. In 2009, just 57 teams had gains while 114 were down.
