Scale, motives, webs, football, fansAbstract
Sports organizations may have a closer relationship with their fans and learn from them through their social interactions in virtual communities. The aim was to test the validity, reliability and factor structure of the scale of reasons for using football team websites. The confirmatory factor analyses resulted in a reduced questionnaire composed of seven dimensions, with 21 items, a high proportion of explained variance and high reliability. These results showed that it was a reliable and valid instrument, accrediting it as useful for management and research, easy to implement, and can be used periodically by those in charge of sports organizations, allowing for comparison between them. The results have made it possible to present a tool capable of finding out the reasons why football fans use the teams' websites.
