We also realized part of the research on two floorball clubs. The research sample consist of 5629 sport spectators, who were selected randomly.As the research mehtod, we choose the modificated questionnaire Slepička 1990 (because of a posibility of a data comparison and findings of changes among sport spectators). Our findings offer a posibility of an overall characteristic of a sport spectator's population in the Czech Republic as well as a posibility of deeper analysis of this specator's population from the point of wiev of a regional distribution.This text is devoted just to the regional aspects of the sport spectatorship. The main topic of the text is then social-demographic characteristic of sport spectators. Authors compare different regions of the Czech republic from the point of wiev of sport spectator's population and then face the findings with a general social and demographic situation in that regions.
