Game-Changing Insights for Topeka Sports!

We’re excited to share the results of the “Road Warriors: Topeka’s Sports Economic Outflow” survey conducted by the Topeka Area Sports Commission (TASC)!

With over 1,000 community participants, this comprehensive survey reveals the significant impact of sports-related travel by Topeka families. Here are some key takeaways:

Frequent Travel: 69.7% of families travel 11+ times a year for sports events, often venturing over 50 miles away!

Economic Impact: Topeka families spend an estimated $7.1 million annually on sports-related travel, highlighting a crucial opportunity for local investment.

TASC is committed to using these insights to enhance our local sports infrastructure, develop new programs, and promote Topeka as a premier destination for sports tourism. Together, we can keep families closer to home while boosting our economy!

Let’s rally together to shape the future of sports in Topeka!
