Yet despite many more postponements than usual, especially early in the season, attendance held up quite well. Combined attendance for NAPBL – known as ‘Minor League Baseball’ (Major League affiliated) leagues, and from those independent leagues who reported regular season attendance, was 48,262,074 in 2013, down 146,242 (0.3%) from 2012. Combined attendance rose 0.7% in 2012, and fell 2.9% in 2011, 0.1% in 2010, and 3.8% in 2009. The 181 post-season NAPBL games, including the Mexican League, drew 701,216, an average of 3,874 per game. Mexican League teams averaged 10,149 per game in the playoffs. Attendance data was available for 45 independent league post-season games, and they drew 103,963, an average of 2,310. 10 NAPBL All-Star games drew a combined 67,782. In 2013, there were 176 NAPBL teams that reported attendance, the same number as in 2012. There were 53 independent league teams reporting attendance, down from 55 teams in 2012. The independent North American League ceased operations after 2012. Some of its teams moved to the new United League or to the new Pacific Association. Attendance was listed for 249 fewer combined NAPBL/independent playing dates in 2013 compared to 2012. The NAPBL leagues had a combined 120 fewer dates. 13 of the 15 NAPBL leagues that charge admission to their games had fewer dates in 2013 than in 2012. The Midwest League played 41 fewer dates than a year ago, and the South Atlantic League had 27 fewer dates. Only the California League (6 more) and the Appalachian League (3 more) had more dates in 2013 than in 2012. Among the more established independent leagues, the American Association, Frontier, and Can-Am Leagues all played fewer dates in 2013 than in 2012, and the Atlantic League had 6 more dates in 2013. Weather can also affect attendance significantly even if games are played. Cold weather early in the season, brutal summer heat, and threatening storms, can result in lower attendance, even if it does not postpone games. Combined NAPBL/independent average attendance per date was 3,771, up 61 from 2012. The 15 NAPBL Leagues that charge admission to their games drew 41,553,781, which is a gain of 273,399 (0.7%) from 2012. These 15 leagues averaged 4,040 per date, up 73 from 2012. The 53 teams in the 7 independent leagues that reported attendance drew 6,708,293, down 419,641 (5.9%) from 2012. Their average per date fell by 29 to 2,668. Combined NAPBL/independent attendance surpassed 40 million for the 15th straight year. It has been above 48 million in each of the last 9 seasons. ‘MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL’ (Major League Affiliated Leagues – Formerly NAPBL) The total 2013 attendance of 41,553,781 was the 5th best in NAPBL history. It was the 9th straight year above 40 million. The average per date of 4,040 was also the 5th best ever. The record high average per date is 4,174 in 2008. Record total attendance is 43,263,740 in 2008. New ballparks opened in 2013 in Birmingham of the Southern League, in Scranton-Wilkes Barre of the International League, where the team returned to after playing home games in 6 different cities while their park was totally rebuilt in 2012, and in Hillsboro, OR, of the Northwest League. That team was in Yakima in 2012. 6 NAPBL leagues had increases in total attendance in 2013. The International League posted the best total increase, up 261,856 (4.0%). The Southern League had a 163,739 increase, and the Northwest League was up 87,651. Other leagues with gains in total attendance were the California, Carolina, and Midwest Leagues. Best percentage gains were by the Northwest League, up 9.8%, and the Southern League, up 7.6%.

    The Honorable Chairman and Members, Pima County Board of Supervisors Re: Kino Veterans Memorial Stadium and Pima County Stadium District January 15, 2014 Page 2 costs have been partially financed and fueled by the Arizona Sports and Tourism Authority (ASTA), which was formed to assist in the building and financing of a new stadium for the Arizona Cardinals football team. The ASTA is only authorized to operate in Maricopa County. Over the years, a number of other spring training facilities have been built or upgraded in Maricopa County. Because of the additional financing provided by the ASTA, we cannot compete with Maricopa County in attracting new Major League teams for spring training. The total cost of building sports facilities in Maricopa County is now nearly $1.3 billon. The downtown Phoenix Chase Field public cost was $238 million; the Arizona Cardinals stadium in Glendale had a public cost of $307.5 million; the Coyotes hockey arena was constructed with $180 million in public funding; and $542 million in public funds has been spent for both new and renovated Cactus League baseball facilities. Several other large sports facility expenditures are planned in Maricopa County, including construction of the new $99 million Mesa Stadium for the Chicago Cubs; nearly $28 million in construction and renovations at the Peoria Sports Complex for the San Diego Padres and Seattle Mariners; and $17.5 million in renovations to HoHokam Field for the Oakland Athletics. These are extraordinarily exorbitant expenditures of public money for sports facilities used primarily by for-profit private organizations. An article in the December 13, 2013 Arizona Republic reported on Glendale’s fiscal stress resulting from financing sports facilities and indicated the annual payment for the two- team spring training facility for the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers would cost $17.5 million this year.

  • Lease Renewal for the Vancouver Canadians
    November 27, 1997 SUBJECT: NAT BAILEY STADIUM - LEASE RENEWAL FOR THE VANCOUVER CANADIANS RECOMMENDATIONS: A. THAT the Board approve a three year renewal (January 1, 1998 - December 31, 2000) with a two year option to JSS Sports Inc., operator of the Vancouver Canadians Baseball Club, for the lease of Nat Bailey Stadium B. THAT the existing rent structure remain at $100,000 per year or 15% of gross admission sales, whichever is greater. C. THAT other modifications to the lease be made, subject to the approval of the General Manager and the General Manager of the Vancouver Canadians. D. THAT no legal rights shall arise hereby and none shall arise thereafter until the execution the contemplated documents BACKGROUND Nat Bailey Stadium was built on its current site in the early 1950's and has had a number of tenants operating professional baseball teams. At times the stadium has reverted back to the city or Park Board and operated for amateur use. In 1977 the stadium was leased to the Vancouver Canadians for a five year period with an option for a five year renewal. A further five year lease was approved in 1987 with an option for another five year renewal. In 1993, when JSS Sports (the owner of the Vancouver Canadians) exercised their option, the Board increased the rent from a base of $50,000 per year or 15% of gross admission sales, whichever is greater, to $100,000 per year or 15% of gross admission sales, whichever is greater. The Canadians had been very successful in increasing attendance and the base rent had been surpassed during all five years leading up to the rent review.
