When a sporting spectator receives a lifetime ban from a stadium for racism, vandalism, violence, streaking, etc. how is that enforced? There are tens of thousands of people who attend each game. What is a stop them from coming back? How does the banning process and enforcement work?

In Italy, for the worst cases you have an extra level of enforcement:
Every game day (home or away), you are summoned to the police station to sign a register, usually at the same time of the match: during the first half of the game, during the second half and a little after the end.
This is to ensure you are not near the stadium during events.
If you don’t go and sign, you could be arrested.
