[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Genuinely curious which countries in which youth don’t play sports?[/quote] I’m from a Western European country and kids do play sports. But it’s a lot more relaxed, unless you are really, really good at the sport. And sport isn’t tied to the school, it’s done outside of school. No one is practicing 3-4 hours every day (again, unless you’re top level). People who like sports do them in their free time, but the emphasis in a kid’s life is on school. Here it feels like school work needs to fit around whatever sport they do. Most of the emails I get from high school are about upcoming sports games and trying to raise money for school sports.
