  • *Fewer audits were conducted at the 18-month time point due to some project officer contracts ending, and COVID-19-related shutdowns of sporting facilities from March 2020 meaning audits after that time were not included for analysis.

  • †Adjusted for season, seasonality of facility and outlet type.
