(UNCLASSIFIED) Recreation is broken down into the following types: Sports Facility, Pool, Park and Other. Sports Facilities include any field where sports are played professional or leisurely and include basketball courts, soccer stadiums and fields, tennis courts, etc. Parks include recreational areas around the cities.Development of Liberia’s recreational locations has taken a backseat in the post-war era to rehabilitation of critical infrastructure and services. Despite the resulting scarcity of parks and sports facilities throughout the country, soccer has surged in popularity and is by far the country’s most popular sport. The Liberian national team, nicknamed the Lone Stars for the Liberian flag, has seen a surge in popularity despite never having qualified for a World Cup. Semi-professional local teams have also experienced growing interest and have seen a 40 percent increase in match-attendance since 2014. An inter-county tournament is held annually for the sport’s highest award in the country, the Barclay Shield. Basketball, swimming, and squash are popular in Liberia’s urban areas, especially Monrovia, despite a lack of facilities outside of hotels and expatriate clubs. School children play soccer and kickball—typically on bare patches of earth rather than formal fields—as well as marbles (usually using dried seeds).Attribute Table Field DescriptionsISO3 - International Organization for Standardization 3-digit country code ADM0_NAME - Administration level zero identification / name ADM1_NAME - Administration level one identification / name ADM2_NAME - Administration level two identification / name NAME - Name of recreation area TYPE - Classification in the geodatabase CITY - City location available SPA_ACC - Spatial accuracy of site location (1 – high, 2 – medium, 3 – low) COMMENTS - Comments or notes regarding the recreation area SOURCE_DT - Source one creation date SOURCE - Source one SOURCE2_DT - Source two creation date SOURCE2 - Source two CollectionThis feature class was generated utilizing data from Wikimapia, OpenStreetMap, and other sources.
