[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]thank you. my kids (girls) are not very interested in sports, i can't imagine them even trying out for a team. but what do all those kids do in high school? do they not have PE?[/quote] My kids HS has PE in 9th-10th grade As others have said, kids who want to keep playing a sport have to find another avenue. Most quit at some point and just shift at best to running/gym for basic exercise. Just look at all the adults around, very few do a team sport. Beyond children, America's sports obsession is more about the spectator experience. My son was never much of an athlete, did rec soccer through middle school and now runs for exercise but he's a passionate sports fan. Main focus is Premier League soccer (just look at UK soccer fans for an example that the US is not unique in sports fandom) but also is part of a Fantasy Football group.[/quote]
