Spogomi is the cleanest sport


Do you think this sporting event has a chance to be included in sports betting, we already have sex sports and organizers are hoping that it will be accepted.

This event is worth considering because it encourages the recycling of waste materials and it's eco friendly.

In fact, there are 20 nations participating in the qualifier

According to my findings, this is the first time that Spogomi go internationally, because 2023 is the first Spogomi world cup. Although Spogomi is not new, it started in Japan in 2008 which is aimed at good ways of collecting unwanted materials/trash in a specific areas and dropping the unwanted material in the correct places in categories. This is nice to know about.

As it is going internationally and more countries are knowing it, more people will watch it and know the rules and how they can gamble with it. Probably with time, gambling sites may start to include Spogomi as one of the sport people can gamble with in their sites.

Gambling sites will first make their findings too, to know how people are watching Spogomi matches, how locally in each country too that they love watching the sport. The more people watch it, the more gamblers that know about it. If many people are watching it and well recognized, gambling sites will introduce its gambling into their site.

The sex as sport in Sweden was actually fake as said by the users in that thread. They do have a link about it being just a fake news.
Spogomi is quite unique but this sport is just too new and people have no idea yet about them. I doubt it will be added on betting sites. I think the sport will need to have a big community and fans first.

But I did saw this one on youtube. It seem like these are the guys who invented this sport the first. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eseowyjZ8Gw

That sex sport will be lie even you should know if you are reading it because that is the definition of pornography.

That is what I will say too, that it is new, the first Spogomi world cup will still be this year. Although not new in Japan where it was founded in 2008.

That YouTube video is 2019. According to what I found online, Mamitsuka Kenichi invented it. You can see that in the OP topic post too.

We need sports like this that encourage recycling of our waste and this is the only sport that can do this, so far they have 20 countries I'm sure many countries will organize their events and ask for memberships in this organization.

Let's admit it garbage and waste are big issues on our planet and by introducing these sports in every country and every city and locality, we can help our planet battle too much pollution and waste.

It's a sport anyone can do and it encourages cooperation and strategy, every country should adopt this sport its a new sport but it's worth being part of it.

amazing how this become a sport to be watched by a lot of people.  i don't know if i would be serious to actually see this as sport.
if you are impressed to the videos of the guys operating an excavator to open a beer cap, you would be impressed also if SPOGOMI player display some tricks in operating trash truck, it would be a showcase of skills. but this sports only uses hands right? 

I don't think casinos will want to add sports to their platform who is not that well known by the majority of people despite this "sport" learning to people good things in life.The casinos only want to get the highest profit as that is their number one concern to make a lot of money and to be a successful one,therefore most of them will stick to well known sports like soccer,basketball,tennis,baseball and motorsports which are widely known to most gamblers.

Some casinos who have a huge amount of capital they may use some of them to invest in these new type of "sports" and leave them in their platform for some months to see if it is worth investing there or not.If people will be interested (which I highly doubt will be the case) then the casino may keep it in their offerings but most likely it will be not kept as I know very few gamblers who would love these new type of things.

I'm not against it, but if it is not that famous or well known to the gamblers, then I doubt that casino will simply include it. Maybe in the next couple of years, when the sports becomes a major one or at least it got the hype surrounding it, maybe some top tier platform are going to list this sport.

So short term, No, doubt that it will be included. Long term and again if it gain audience throughout the world, then there might be a chance for this sports. And to be honest, this is the first time that I have heard about it, so I might do some research later so thanks to the OP for bringing this up to the community.

I know from the very start that the sex sport was just a frivolous idea that was just.
 Playing out of the head of people and will not go anywhere since it is unrealistic to have such activity as a sport and this has a lot of things to battle against since not everyone will want to play or watch such games.
Spogomi sounds old fashion to me to be included in casino games since the process of playing the game may be difficult to be encrypted into online casinos, since this game is about the cleaning of trash and collecting unwanted material I am kind of surprised how that will work, but I am sure that if casino fine the game lucrative and being able to generate passive returns there will find their way to develop it.

This is more proper and moral to be called a sport than that devil originating sex competition that has no good moral values. I like it and will bet on it if sportsbetting agree to include it in their platform. If this sport become popular and more practiced in countries the amount of waste and trash in our marine life will greatly be reduced, which is good for our earth. This is the kind of sports that should be encouraged and not that rubbish of a sex competition, showcasing sexual immorality in daylight.

After all, we are all aware that the sport of sex is of no use if it is added to a casino, because indeed it will not give big profits to any casino or sports betting platform, moreover this sport called Spogomy may indeed be a healthy sport but it will not be healthy if it is in casinos let alone on sports betting platforms.

I support this sport for social activities rather than to be used as a competition or sports betting on gambling platforms because I also don't think it will attract users also to gamble and bet this sport, I think OP only made threads for discussion only which makes no sense to add in casinos or gambling platform sites.  ;)

Given that the sport is already 15 years old, I am quite surprised that I am hearing from it for the first time. Maybe it's not so popular in my country. With 20 nations competing against each other there must be a lot of people following it already. Picking up trash is a good thing, so the sport would actually better the life of many and should be supported. The problem is that casinos will add things only where there is real demand for it. Do you know many other people who are interested in the sport and would bet on it? Maybe contacting a sport bookmaker directly and tell him how high potential demand would be for the sport. Another point is how competitive the sport actual is and how fair the tournament is organized.

Huh interesting. I don't think it's ever going to be one though, cause idk, the entire game seems like it focuses on uncontrolled factors. To compare it to eSports (which I mostly watch), it's like the sense of randomness BR (such as Apex) gives, but it can be balanced out due to the skill of the player themselves (and the other factors that the game added to fix that sense of randomness), unlike in this case, where it's well, completely random. It'd probably be better if tournament organizers were the ones who scattered the trash around to create a sense of control, but that'd defeat the point now wouldn't it?

But hey that's just me. It is a relatively new sport though (imo) so that may just be the simple reason as to why casinos don't have it. Maybe give it half a decade more to grow and we might just see them in casinos.

I think Spogomi is an interesting concept for a sport. And I am sure there is a way to bet on the players. Although I am not too familiar with the rules, I think it would be quite safe to assume that the one who picks up the most amount of trash or a certain type of trash would be declared the winner. Surely that is something you could bet on.

The question is how do you prevent cheating?

For me personally, if Spogomi is made into a game at an online casino, in my opinion it's fine, it makes sense and deserves to be made into a tournament in every casino.
The reason: apart from reminding gamblers about cleanliness and not littering, it is one of the written warnings for those who want to play the sports game Spogomi, This game can increase people's knowledge about the importance of disposing of trash in its place, not carelessly.

Maybe the idea of ​​the Spogomi game I agree if there is a casino considering making it a sports game, we can play it like a soccer sport with two teams, the team that collects the most trash is the team that wins and gets the most points, great idea for Spogomi sport. Or other ideas such as the pokemon game, picking up trash at the point that has been provided by the game in a certain time, so you can go to the next level.

To me, this activity does not seem like a sport but a kind of activity that aims to remove garbage from public surfaces, but in a way to do so in a competitive spirit. I don't see how such a "sport" could get involved in something that offers online casinos. As far as I can see from the rules, the garbage is collected in the designated area, and I do not think it would be difficult to manipulate the amount of garbage and the collection way.

Maybe this "sport" is now honest, but if people start betting on who will collect as much garbage as possible, then we will have fixed games and manipulations like in all other sports.

I would watch the tournament but I wouldn't bet on it. There are just some sports out there that deserves recognition and attention, but not being placed in gambling platforms whatsoever because of the nature of how the teams/competitors can win on the sport. Spogomi promotes positive things around, but I don't see it as something that gamblers and bettors would put their money into.

A while ago, we saw that someone wanted to make sex a sport, and now it is a sport of picking up trash. I wonder why picking up trash is made into a sport. It seems humans really want to make many things as a sport. Maybe the goal is for humans to be able to have different physical activities than they do daily, but take out trash as a sport? Hmm, that's a little weird. But it can make people curious and maybe want to participate, especially if there is a big prize for the winner. And I haven't considered whether the casinos will add this "sport" to their list of games like yesterday's sex sport.

I'm not so sure, odds providers will look at the fact  of can we make money adding this? The answer is most likely yes. People like to bet anything. Normal sports like baseball, soccer, cricket and , hockey and silly shit like elections and things of that nature. If the odds providers think there will be interest, they just may add this.

Can't help linking it to political issues like that ESG and climate change that WEF had been trying to make woke believe just about anything like the fart of the cows in farms are more destructive to the environment than the smoke coming out from the factories and cars. Hell ya!! Lets play this community services penalty for the law breakers and call it sport. There used to be a ball to shoot or something that players can make points to win a game. In this game, you need garbage.  :D

Even if Spogomi added, not one Bitcoiner will bet. I don't think someone in here are actually a fan. Would you be considered athlete in playing this game?

This is a nice sport and it wouldn't be a bad idea if it gets listed on sportbooks but I'm just surprised  how there have been so many sporting games that I never heard  about  them and this has been one of the best sports I've seen recently  because I recently  came across  one dirty new sport which is the sex sports  and I wasn't moved by it because it think that should be the work  of pornographics and not Olympics.

Atleast we found a game that is economically useful to its surroundings but since this game will require picking of trash, which simply implies that the game is expected be beneficial to just a particular area the sports will be carried out, that's if I'm not wrong.

Only until today that I became aware of the existence of this sport, Spogomi. From what I've searched from the internet, it was founded in the year 2008. It seems like it is only gaining popularity right now, I hope it continues growing to every country.
I do not know the ENTIRE idea of this sport, but I love it already. I love the idea, kudos to that very person who initiated this. Just imagine how much help it can do for our environment.

To answer the question, definitely yes. Spogomi can be included to gambling platforms.

I've created this thread for awareness that there is a sport like this and it has it's own World Cup and at the same time the possibility that it could be included in casinos, we all know bettors bet on almost anything it may be included for gamblers to bet, it may not be now but who knows in the future.

It's one of the sports that is very unique and countries can easily adopt it, it may become one of the most popular sports, I discovered this sport when it was covered by one popular media.

if there is enough audience willing to bet on this kind of "sport" I'm pretty sure there will be a casino who'll post odds for it. it makes me wonder how competative this sport will be and if there will be a prize for whoever win the spogomi world cup.

this one has been proven to be a fake, there have been article posted online talking about how sex has not been recognized as sport in sweden and there will be no "first sex championship" will be happening.

I do agree with the people saying that this is not a very popular sport which is not going to attract a lot of bettors to a sportsbook to bet on the games being played, even if a part of the audience knows about the sport, they would probably be hesitant from betting on it since there is basically no way one can know which team is going to win until the sport gets popular and people get to know which teams are performing very well.

I also don't understand why collecting and recycling trash is made a sport, I know it encourages others to do the same and it can be good for the atmosphere, but wouldn't it be better if the money spent on the events like the world cup for this sport is spent simply on cleaning of the trash around the country?

Recognition first. Bookies won't add something if there's no good betting market.

Possibly, it should appear first at local bookies. But as time progresses, and if that event will be more recognized, maybe there's a chance that it can be added now by most bookies. Reading more details about the event specifically the World Cup version, I think there's a big chance that some bookies might add it in the future.

Not as the usual sport event but the same as how we see bets on such general events (e.g. US Pres. election bet etc.).

Some sportsbooks can bend the rules and include markets that don't appear in most sportsbooks, so it's possible, but it would be better if this sport grew big enough to be popular in the future so it won't be limited to a couple of sportsbooks.

They probably have several referees involved to stop teams from cheating.

Idk, thats going for disasterous results. We're already fucked with one referee and 3 judges.

Although they consider this as sport, it will not be as sport like they can be done on olympics for this sport is more like after party events, when all have left and one thing is to be done and its to clean up the trash.

I hope they make it a sport where athletes display skills otherwise, there is no challenge to it that even a winnie can join.

Perhaps those who participated in the competition would call themselves athletes because they thought it was a new sport. But for the general public, picking up trash is an activity that is carried out on their own accord, so they won't call it that. But the game may attract the interest of many people because of the prizes that will be given to winners. After all, if there is a big reward, people will naturally try to follow it to get the reward. Let's just wait for further news about the contest so we know how much interest people take part in.

For sure it would be possible to form bet with peer to peer betting I guess. But with gambling platforms or sportsbooks, it will only be included once the game accumulated enough popularity to create volume for the players or demand from community. It is still a young game as we all know. Also, things are the same with other local games which is rare to see in platforms, usually it is limited to area. One example is cockfighting in my country which is popular in local community but is not famous with foreign countries. So I guess same thing goes with chances for this sport.

Yes, as much as it is eco friendly, bookies will not add it yet just due to that reason. The sport has to be very recognised and have the potential to give them profit before they can consider including it. Bookies are in the business to make money, so that is their first consideration, which is profit. There are many sports asides the ones that are generally known, some sports are local sports until they become global, bookies will consider a sport that has a global status and can attract people to bet from different places not every local sport.

I wouldn't be surprised if the gambling platform adds sports betting like this in the future, we'll never know, after all gambling platforms and casinos usually only add games that are requested by many of their users, if there are many requests about this sport of course the gambling platform will add it later . as long as it's in their favor there's nothing wrong with discussing new sports betting in this thread.

I also like to bet on any sport as long as it can be profitable and I can do research, of course it will be very easy for me to play there, we can't talk about this bet, but let's just hope it will be added to the gambling platform site to have new sports there.

It's not surprising that this concept originates from Japan, they have a reputation for hosting some of the most unusual and unconventional competitive events out there. They certainly have a knack for coming up with distinctive traditions and activities. When it comes to this particular concept, I personally don't see it as a traditional sport. It seems more like a creative way to turn a public action into a competition, all in the name of raising environmental awareness. It's a unique approach, I must say.

I highly doubt we'll see this making its way onto any sportsbooks or world sports calendars anytime soon. It's just not the kind of thing that fits into the traditional sports category.

Sports betting platforms prioritise sports and events that are followed much by the people around the world. This game isn't known much, and through this thread only I've come to know about this sports. This is really good as a sport. For the first time World Cup is gonna be conducted and the rules were good. I expect these kind of games to be encouraged all around, because people will show interest in keeping the surroundings clean. If not conducting the event on places that are polluted by people can help in making the place better. Japan is good in technology as well as in unique thinking. Japan have been organising these games among the school children long back itself. So, the championship gonna be won by Japan team.

I don't think that gambling platforms will include SPOGOMI on their platforms for now. Ok this is an interesting and cleanest and unique sport but what betting platforms are looking for is not it. They are looking for sports that are liked by many people and are known, for example like football, basketball, etc. But it's possible that if the sport caught the attention of a large number of people, the casinos might include SPOGOMI on their platforms, but the chances of that would be slim.

In this you are absolutely right, as far as I am concerned I prefer that some games , bets always have a lot of relevance, the relevance and the number of people who want to play is important, firstly because the demand is important for the jackpot to be good and it is not Disappointing, and on the other hand the more people come in and talk and the Word Spreads it will cause the normal curiosity of all kinds, this attracts, at any time things can go to another level , but if there is no Interest in a new game or event I think that people will not take it , no matter how Beautiful it looks.

It is possible to place bets on any topic, not just sports.
If there are two or more possibilities to obtain a certain result of something, then it is possible to place a bet on that.

The big question really should be...
Is there anyone willing to organize an opposition about this?
Would people actually bet money on it?
Could this be something profitable?

If the answer is "yes" to all these questions, then it certainly exists.

As a general rule, the more popular the sport, the greater the chances that we will have a chance to bet on it.

I think that a sport should be at least somewhat entertaining and interesting to watch, in order to be included by the bookies.
There's nothing interesting and entertaining about gathering trash.
The Japanese people are kinda weird. I respect their attitude towards keeping the environment clean and organized, but gathering trash isn't a sport and it never will be.
AFAIK, the Japanese mafia-the Yakuza has some influence in the trash pickup business in Japan. Such Spogomi tournaments might be rigged by the Yakuza, if sports bets are allowed for this so called sport.

This sport was originated in 2008, that's a very long time already, if it's not available on casinos right now it's because it's a failed sport for the majority of other countries but only welcome in the originated country, why would anyone want to implement such in their casino when those who are going to take advantage of the game are very limited? Won't that fetch them a limited amount of money? Or there is something I don't know about this?

That "sex as a sport" was fake news. Authorities behind the sports registration already cleared it.

This could be good though. Picking up trash and making a counter on how much they picked up. It's good for the environment and it's also good for the health to be exercised.
What I don't like about this is the idea that will be left out. If people will know there is a sport for trash picking, they won't learn anymore about where they should put their trash.
The positive side is keeping the streets clean, but there are already movements on that. One is the company where you drop your cans, bottles, and plastic stuff where they will pay you in exchange.
I found one Filipino Vlogger who did it in Denmark and he made lots of money from all his trash that could buy him food for a week.
There's always a positive and negative effect on this kind of thing but I think it's a good way to make kids learn that trash should not be on the street.

The idea of the sport is great, but the way you can win in this sport is really depends on your location and your luck, it's not from yourself and the chance of winning is different for every participant. Let's say you're live in German, you can't accumulate a lot trash because it has been picked and cleaned by the garbage collector. If you're live in Brazil, you can accumulate a lot trash because the Brazilian garbage collector isn't really discipline and the Brazilian like to throw trash in everywhere.

I hope bookies won't add this sport even if gains a lot of attention in the years to come. It looks like it was meant to be a fun competition for family and friends and I think it's better to just keep it that way. It's already great as it is and betting on this will most likely dilute the noble intention of this event.

Didn't read the article included by the Op, and the understanding gained from the Op's explanation is that this is like clearing an area of trash, because anything unwanted is of course trash.
I think this can be categorized as a sport and the aim is very good especially there are tournaments so that people who are currently used to doing this can benefit by competing and winning and earning money so that their activities can continue, and if they get high attention it is very possible bookmakers will provide betting bets for these sports.
In my country, several youth groups do this, clean up rivers or other dirty things, they will really be proud if they can take part in the tournament that will be held, especially if they can win because it will inspire other young people and also other residents to start keeping the environment clean.

I totally agree with the point that it shouldn't have been made a sport because it might be a good cause but I don't see it being in any way interesting to be watched by a global audience because it is not a game at all, it's just some people picking trash, keeping the environment clean, so it should only be categorized as a good cause and should surely be promoted but I don't think this is the right way to do that at all.

I also believe that the money they spend on world cups and everything regarding this sport could be spent on picking more trash and making the world a better place instead of making people compete for it and earn rewards for doing so, just pay some people or companies and make them pick even more trash, that will be much better.

Even if it never lands in casinos or sports betting platforms, I support awareness of this sport because this sport is unique and fun to play and watch and encourages cleanliness and recycling for a better ecosystem.

The world has become big garbage and we all need to do something to combat global warming having a sport like this, enlightens the community that Spogomi is fun and can be done by a whole family and community, maybe in the future it will become popular not only in 20 countries but on all countries because its easy to do and encourage cooperation.

I see your stance, but consider this: classifying litter pickup as a sport could ripple profound impacts beyond surface-level tidying

Pitching it as a contest not only incentivizes the task but amplifies the importance of environmental cleanliness. Such events, under the public eye, could rally global engagement and cultivate a cleanliness-centric ethos. Concerning funds, the awareness and attitude changes these events generate could lead to durable environmental benefits surpassing the effects of a one-off cleanup.

that is very true, it has noble cause other than attracting players from all over the world. since not many bettors are familiar with this sports or should i say, not interested on this sports, i don't think bookies will include this on their list. one thing also is that most people are not familiar with the players involve on this activity, so for them it is quite difficult to take their picks on this game.
but i am for spogomi in expanding their awareness, a very earth-friendly sports i should say. even if it is not considered as true sports by many, i will also support the cause.

Besides it being charity work on steroids, there’s a huge potential for money to be made in this type of game. Imagine, selling those trash collected would be a good business model that will help keep the game sustainable and running for as long as they like. Plus there’s not much costs about it too and all that you really need is a venue where you would collect scattered trash .

It all  depends over the fact that this should be horrendously famous for casinos to pick up on it and actually include it in games that they let players play with. As it stands today unlike sex it’s a rather obscure type of sport and until casinos catch this game they’d most likely won’t hear anything about spogomi.
