[quote=Anonymous]http://www.gazette.net/article/20120822/SPORTS/708099915/1023/1023/fewer-african-americans-play-baseball&template=gazette Interesting article. Part of the article talks about how specialization is happening younger and it is affecting participation in more than one sport. (mostly baseball) “Because of other sports becoming a year round process, kids aren't playing two, three sports anymore,” he said. “They're focusing on one and they're doing that year-round. I think that's really what the decline is: A lot of those kids sticking to their primary sport rather than branching out. From early on, they find a sport they like and stick with it. There's so much pressure on kids so if they see a sport they have a little bit of talent in, they push everything to that sport.”[/quote]
