The only thing white people are doing more than Asians are sports. Asians are doing origami, ukulele, circus and the rest of the junk mentioned here.[/quote]

White people are doing better in team sports popular in US.  Asians actually perform better in swimming, golf, gymnastics etc.  Because these are sports  where individual performance matters and Asians do not get blocked by their coaches or other parents. [/quote]

Team sports offers things individual sports cannot.  
When you practice tennis, you can do it on your schedule, take a day off whenever you want, etc.  
When you practice lacrosse, much of it cannot be on your schedule.
Learning to deal with teammates and those other parents and coaches are also important skill you learn from team sports.[/quote]

I got my first job because of my individual sport (the boring manager appreciated the discipline it takes), but business LOVE team sports.  Working in many roles is all about being a team player.  Team sports teaches you that, so does orchestra and many other things, but business seem to value team sports very highly.[/quote]

Sorry, "hiring" manager.  He wasn't boring but the job kind of was.[/quote]
