The bar chart shows the proportion of volunteers in sports organisations in New Zealand by household type in 2010, while the pie chart illustrates the distribution of volunteers across different support roles in the same year.
Overall, couples with dependent children accounted for the largest proportion of volunteers, while other household types were less represented. In addition, coaching and teaching roles made up the largest share of volunteer positions, whereas medical and other support roles were the least common.
In terms of household type, couples with dependent children represented the highest proportion of volunteers, at just under 50%. This was followed by couples without dependent children, who accounted for approximately 27%. By contrast, one-parent or single-person households and other household types made up smaller shares, at around 11% and 12% respectively.
Turning to the pie chart, coaches, instructors and teachers formed the largest group of volunteers, with just over 200,000 people. Committee members and administrators were the second most common role, followed by scorers and timekeepers. Referees and umpires accounted for fewer than 100,000 volunteers, while medical and other support roles represented the smallest proportion overall.
