When the COVID-19 epidemic spread around the world, researchers did many studies about sports and COVID-19, but there was not much quantitative research. Therefore the purpose of this study was the effect of the COVID-19 epidemic on the sports performance of Asian football clubs with quintile regre...

description When the COVID-19 epidemic spread around the world, researchers did many studies about sports and COVID-19, but there was not much quantitative research. Therefore the purpose of this study was the effect of the COVID-19 epidemic on the sports performance of Asian football clubs with quintile regression. This study used panel data for fifteen Asian football clubs from April to December 2020. The research used the points of Asia football clubs to estimate their sports performance. Also, this study collected cases and deaths caused by the COVID-19 epidemic as the other two variables. According to the results, because coefficient estimates (degree of dependence) for each quantile are equal (for both effects COVID-19 virus on Sports Performance and effect death of COVID-19 virus on Sports Performance), the dependence structure is said to be constant. Therefore, a positive estimate and equivalent in all quantile for the impact of cases of COVID-19 virus on Sports Performance show that cases of COVID-19 virus have a constant positive effect on sports performance. A negative estimate and equivalent in all quantile for the impact of death of COVID-19 virus on Sports Performance show that death of COVID-19 virus has a constant negative effect on Sports Performance.
