1 · Trigger
A global tournament that concentrates attention, broadcast and national identity for a few weeks.
2 · Transfer
Attention, merchandise, casual interest, some trial registrations, political goodwill.
3 · Reserve
Clubs, coaches, fields, junior pathways, volunteers — the things that have to exist after the final.
4 · Pulse
A registration spike, a ratings spike, a spike in conversation.
