Introduction
• Sports brings us all together
• All over the world people of different ethnicities and backgrounds unite to play sports.
• Sports are the only thing we can all agree on.
However…
…sports are not entirely unaffected by ethnic differences
Objective• To find any correlations between athletic
excellence in certain sports, and the ethnicity of top players
• To determine if sport stereotypes are based in reality, or completely unfounded
Objective cont.
• To see if these trends are reflected in our school.
• To discover whether students of different ethnicities participate more in sports, and what sports they choose to play and watch.
Hypothesis
• We believe that there will be definite ethnic trends in the world of professional sports.
• These trends will be reflected in the high school population.
Hypothesis cont.
• We believe that African Americans and North Americans will be the most involved in sports.
Current Stereotypes • Based on current stereotypes, here are our
predictions:
EuropeansSoccer
North Americans
African AmericansFootball
Hispanics
North Americans Baseball
African AmericansBasketball
North Americans
EuropeansHockey

Possible Bias• Only North American leagues were
chosen.• American soccer leagues are not the
best.• In the “Our School” section, only 50
boys were surveyed. Surveyed

Approximate Percentage of High
School Boys Surveyed
Data Collection: Professional Data• There was no data set available
comparing ethnicity and athletic achievement.
• We had to create our own data using information from NHL.com, NBA.com etc.
Data Collection: High School Data• We picked 50 high school boys at
random. • We asked these questions:
What ethnicity are you? What sport do you enjoy playing the most? Are you involved in any after school sports? If yes, how many hours do you spend a week playing sports? (To the nearest hour) What sport do you enjoy watching the most?
Ethnic Breakdown
Chapter IHOCKEY
Introduction
• Hockey is Canada’s favorite sport, but it is also very popular in Europe.
• The top players in the NHL are either European or North American.
• Only one exception: Jerome Iginla.

North Americans 8.58
Conclusion• North Americans
and Europeans dominate the sport of hockey.
• North Americans are more consistent.
• However, the top SEVEN of the top TEN players are European.
Chapter IIBASKETBALL
Introduction
• It does not take complicated graphs to show that professional basketball is dominated by African Americans.
• In any given NBA game, about 88% of the players will by African American.

But Wait…
• Basketball is also very popular in Europe.
• The American team is often challenged in the World Championships and the Olympics.
• The NBA MVP for 2006 and 2007 was a North American.
Is It the Same in Our School? • No. African American students in our
school played a variety of sports.

Number or Boys Who Played Basketball in
Each Ethnic Group
• There were students of every ethnicity who enjoyed basketball.
Conclusion
• Professional basketball is dominated by African Americans.
• But! This trend is not reflected in our high school.
• This could point to a reversal of the trend in future years.
Chapter IIIBASEBALL
Introduction
• Our analysis of baseball is divided into two main sections: pitching and hitting/fielding.
• Even though baseball is
popular all over the world, the top players were almost all North American or Hispanic.

North American73%
Oriental2%
Pitching – Who is Better?
• Even though there are more North American pitchers, the stats of both ethnicities are almost identical.
Average Wins Average ERA
Hispanics 15 3.9
North Americans 15 3.6

Hispanics 1.69 0.94
North Americans 2.75 0.55

Who is Better at What Position?
• Hispanics excel at outfield positions requiring speed.
• North Americans excel at infield positions.
Percentage of Players of a Certain Ethnicity by Position
Conclusion• There is more North American
pitchers, but their stats are almost identical to Hispanics.
• North Americans excel at infield positions requiring precision.
• Hispanics excel at outfield positions requiring speed and endurance.
Chapter IVFOOTBALL
Introduction
• Football is arguably North America’s most favored sport.
• Football has many positions. We took the top 10 players in the categories of:
– Passing– Rushing – Receiving – Tackling
– Sacking – Kicking – Punting
Percentage of Top NFL Players, by Ethnicity
Percentage of Top NFL players by Ethnicity
African American 54%
North American 43%
European 3%
Who Does What Best?
• Each category was dominated by one type of ethnicity, some having 100% of only one ethnicity.
• The position of “Sacks” was split. Therefore, we must examine it further.
Number of Players of Each Ethnicity by Position
Ethnicity Passing Rushing Tackles Sacks Kickers and Punters
North American 10 0 1 4 17European 0 0 0 0 2
African American 0 10 9 6 1
Kickers/Punters and Quarter Backs• We decided to put kickers and
punters together in a group because both positions involve the use of legs and length of kicks.
• North American dominated both of these categories.
• It can not be a coincidence that 100% of quarterback are North American.
Rushing and Tackling• Both of these positions require large body size,
strength, and speed.
• African Americans dominated both these categories.
• Again, it can not be a coincidence that 95% of the players in this category are African American.
Sacks – Who is More Consistent
SD Hats of -1 to 1 for Total Number of Sacks, by Ethnicity
• There are more African Americans, but they are less consistent and have a lower mean.
Conclusion
• African American excel at football positions involving strength and speed.
• North American excel at football positions involving precision and technique.
Chapter VSOCCER
Introduction
• Soccer is truly an international sport.
• Unfortunately, soccer is not very popular in North America.
• As such, very few good players are attracted to the MLS league. This means that our report will not accurately portray this sport.

European5%
North American40%
Hispanic45%
So Who is Better?
• Hispanics are consistent, but not spectacular (they are not very good or very bad).
• North Americans are less consistent, but the top players are North American.
Conclusion • There is an almost equal number of
Hispanic and North American players in the MLS.
• The one European is David Beckham, who has been hired more for his ability to sell tickets than to play the game. • We can assume that
there is a large number or North Americans in the MLS because they are not good enough to play in an European league.
Chapter VIOUR SCHOOL
Introduction • Our group wanted to find out if there is a
correlation between ethnicity and sports and if that correlation can be found in our school. We surveyed 50 boys at random and these are our results.
African Americans ( 5 boys) • We hypothesized that African Americans would play
basketball.
• 2/5 play basketball
• 1/5 play and watch hockey.
• 1/5 play and watch football
• 1/5 play soccer and watch hockey.
Hispanics (3 boys)• We hypothesized that Hispanics would play soccer.
• 2/3 play and watch soccer.
• 1/3 play football and watch hockey.
• Only one boy participates in after school activities.
Europeans (6 boys) • We hypothesized that Europeans would play soccer.
• 2/6 play and watch soccer.
• 2/6 play baseball, one likes to watch hockey the other football.
• 1/6 play and watch hockey.
North Americans ( 20 boys) • We hypothesized that North Americans would play soccer.
• 11/20 play hockey. (only 5 like to watch and play )
• 4/11 play soccer . (only 1 like to play and watch soccer)
• 1/11 play baseball and watch hockey.
• 2/20 play and watch basketball.
• 2/20 played “other” sports, one watched hockey and the other soccer.
Oriental (5 boys) • We hypothesized that Orientals would play soccer.
• 2/5 play and watch soccer.
• 1/5 play and watch “other”.
• 1/5 play basketball and watch football.
• 1/5 play soccer but watches basketball.
Middle Eastern (4 boys) • We hypothesized that Middle Easterner would play soccer.
• 2/4 play and watch soccer.
• 1/4 play and watch basketball.
• 1/4 play and watch hockey.
Other (5 boys)• 1/5 play baseball and watch hockey.
• 2/5 play and watch basketball.

Percentage of Boys of Each Ethnicity in our Survey
Involvement
• Middle Eastern students participated the most. North Americans and African Americans also participated quite a bit. We where happy to find that the majority of students participated in sports.
Conclusion
• 1. Europeans and North Americans lead the sport of hockey. In general, players of both these ethnicities demonstrate the same level of skill. However, North American layers demonstrate a higher degree of consistency.
• 2. The sport of basketball is dominated by African Americans. Players of this descent top the leader boards in every aspect of the game.
• 3. Hispanic and North American players excel at the sport of baseball. They are equally matched in all aspects of baseball: pitching, hitting, and fielding.
Conclusion
• 4. In professional football, positions requiring strength and stamina were filled by African Americans, while positions requiring precision and technique were excelled at by North Americans.
• 5. Hispanic and North American players dominate soccer in North America. However, this is not truly representative which ethnicity excels at this sport.
• 6. Students in our school are not affected by the ethnic trends found in professional sports. Middle Eastern students are the most physically active over all, but boys of all ethnicities participate in sports to some degree.
