Abstract
This project deals with measurement and evaluation of the static and dynamic competitive balance in selected three highest national football competitions. These are - the German Bundesliga, the Eredivisie in the Netherlands and the Czech Gambrinus Liga (formerly Czechoslovak First League).
The static balance reveals the differences between positions of clubs in the tables between individual seasons. It has been established with the help of the calculation of the standard deviations of the percentage of wins.
The dynamic balance is perceived as competitive balance in the course of a longer period - thus determining the ranking of clubs throughout several seasons. It has been obtained with the help of Spearman''s and Kendall''s coefficients of calculation of corelation of club''s rankings.
Results of this work are available in graphic illustrations of the development of competitive balance in the aforementioned leagues during the past four decades. They identify the trends of development of this phenomena, define its size, direction and present significance.
Out of the three analyzed leagues, the relative and absolute highest level of competitive balance is presented in the Bundesliga; however, evidently all three leagues show in this respect a perceptible steady decline.
