  • Cactus League Study 2012
    DETAILS OF THE FINDINGS Attendee Gender – Six of ten head of game party 2012 Cactus League attendee respondents are men. This is the case among both local (Phoenix metro residents) and out-of-area (outside the Phoenix metro) attendees. In line with past studies, there continues to be a male skew regardless of team – especially among Reds (66%), Dodgers (66%) and Rockies (68%) attendees. Only among Rangers attendees is there a slight female lean (52%). Table 1 Attendee Gender (Head of Party) Place of Residence 2003 2007 2012 Phoenix Out of Total Total Total Metro Area Men 63% 70% 60% 61% 60% Women 37% 30% 40% 39% 40% N=2457 N=2406 N=3004 N=1254 N=1750 Team Chicago Kansas Arizona Chicago White Cincinnati Cleveland Colorado City Diamondbacks Cubs Sox Reds Indians Rockies Royals Men 58% 62%62% 66% 58% 68% 63% Women 42% 38%38% 34% 42% 32% 37% N=330 N=270N=192 N=108 N=132 N=320 N=135 Team Los Los San San Angeles Angeles Milwaukee Oakland Diego Francisco Seattle Texas Angels Dodgers Brewers Athletics Padres Giants Mariners Rangers Men63 63% 66% 58% 57% 65% 55% 56% 48% Women 37% 34% 42% 43% 35% 45% 44% 52% N=228 N=213 N=156N=102 N=162 N=294 N=180 N=182 Cactus League, March, 2012 1 Attendee Age – The median age of a 2012 Cactus League head of party game attendee is 49.9 years, reflecting some progressive aging from the 2003 (42.8 years) and 2007 (47.0 years) studies. As we found in 2007, the median age of out-of-area attendees (52.5 years) is “older” than Phoenix metro area residents (45.3 years).

UPDATE On January 4, 2005, team owner Arte Moreno announced that the team would change its name to "The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim." Moreno believes that the name change will allow the team to tap into a larger marketing area in the greater Los Angeles community. Commissioner Bug Selig has approved the name change, but there are pending lawsuits by the city to enjoin the team, requiring the name to remain "The Anaheim Angels." The city sued arguing that the lease precludes the change, while the team argues that by leaving "Anaheim" in the name, the change satisfies the terms of the lease. NAMING RIGHTS In early 2004 Edison International exercised their option to terminate their 20-year, $50 million naming rights agreement with the Anaheim Angels.
