The Outlaws rounded off their home
group fixtures with victory over
Leicestershire Foxes in front of a crowd of
10,147 before staging a home quarter-final
in front of 11,237.
An average crowd of 8,712 across seven
group matches was only surpassed by
London based counties Middlesex and
Surrey.
The average group stage attendance at
Trent Bridge is up by 591 from 8,121 in
2013 to 8,712 in 2014, a rise of 7.3%.
By virtue of the expansion of the group
stage from five home games to seven,
total attendance has risen by 50.2% from
40,605 in 2013 to 60,982 this year.
Trent Bridge has topped spectator
experience polls for the past five seasons
and remains committed to enhancing the
matchday offering.
“The NatWest T20 Blast has been
extremely well supported at Trent Bridge
this season and it’s particularly pleasing to
see a growth in average attendance despite
the expansion of the group stage,” said
NottinghamshireTicket Office Manager
Nigel Murray.
“Friday night cricket has proved popular
but we’ve also had great crowds on
weekend afternoons.”
