Streszczenie Kibice stanowią istotę dla widowiska sportowego, a ich brak na trybunach nega-tywnie wpływa na wartość imprez ocenianych z perspektywy fanów, sponsorów i mediów. Głównym celem badań była ocena jakości wybranych usług oferowanych przez polskie kluby piłkarskie. Jakość usług sportowych należy utożsamić ze zdol-nością do zaspokojenia potrzeb związanych z daną aktywnością fizyczną. Za po-mocą metody on-line survey przeprowadzono badania ankietowe uzyskując odpo-wiedzi od prawie trzystu kibiców piłki nożnej. Wyniki wykazały, że typowy kibic piłki nożnej to mężczyzna w wieku od 21 do 30 lat z średnim wykształceniem i dochodem poniżej 1600 zł brutto. Z kolei jakość zbadanych działań realizowanych przez polskie kluby jest oceniana na poziomie dostatecznym. Procesowi doskona-lenia powinna zostać poddana strona internetowa drużyny i asortyment pamiątek klubowych. Organizacje sportowe chcąc pozyskać większą liczbę stałych kibiców powinny realizować swoje działania marketingowe na podstawie cyklicznych ba-dań potrzeb i oczekiwań kibiców.
