For the sports consumers, purchasing licensed products for a sports team may be a way of strengthening a mental bond with the team they support, and it is a kind of consumption behavior for the sports fans to visit the stadium and watch games in person. The purchase of licensed products from which the fans may bring profits to the club may also be said to be a consumption behavior. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to articulate and specify the effect of professional sports’ quality of service on the identification of team and the brand loyalty in the professional sports market, which is experiencing difficulties such as reductions in the number of games and reductions in the number of spectators due to the COVID-19, thereby presenting a strategic plan to promote the purchase and sales of licensed products.
