Count across multiple columns

Hi tockert ,
According to your screenshot, I create a sample to have a test. Here I suggest you to transform your table in Power Query Editor, then you can get result by creating a matrix visual.
M code:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("ZZBLDoAgDETv0jWXEBHlt9aEsHSp3n8nHyMtXRAyvOl0QowwgYD9uc473z6fokNVh4ckIsz4QYDs8jOoIaEPhMrlwBVL2P6XwhfGNa2gUWBbsZIRgXTjOLIa8MZiMKSBgeEPLMGWFXS0oBvnPeWeBQRqIDKlFw==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Team Member #2 Name" = _t, #"Team Member #2 Shirt Style" = _t, #"Team Member #2 Size" = _t, #"Team Member #3 Name" = _t, #"Team Member #3 Shirt Style" = _t, #"Team Member #3 Size" = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Team Member #2 Name", type text}}), #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Changed Type", "Index", 1, 1, Int64.Type), #"Unpivoted Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Added Index", {"Index"}, "Attribute", "Value"), #"Duplicated Column" = Table.DuplicateColumn(#"Unpivoted Other Columns", "Attribute", "Attribute - Copy"), #"Extracted First Characters" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Duplicated Column", {{"Attribute", each Text.Start(_, 14), type text}}), #"Extracted Text Range" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Extracted First Characters", {{"Attribute - Copy", each Text.Middle(_, 15, 100), type text}}), #"Pivoted Column" = Table.Pivot(#"Extracted Text Range", List.Distinct(#"Extracted Text Range"[#"Attribute - Copy"]), "Attribute - Copy", "Value"), #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Pivoted Column",{{"Attribute", Order.Ascending}, {"Index", Order.Ascending}}), #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Sorted Rows",{"Index"}) in #"Removed Columns"New Table:
Then create a matrix and get result directly.

I am currently doing it by each team like this.
This still requires some manual counting to know all the different sizes by gender.
Thanks

Thanks for the help.
This worked. I was able to use this as a template to get it to work for all the team columns, as I have a total of 5 people per team.
I now have one matrix with all the shirt style and size counts. Saves us from having to manually count this up.
