[quote=Anonymous]In the U.S., high school students probably have the most interscholastic sports options of any developed country. (Japan might make a close second, as high schools there also have numerous competitive sports options.) In Europe for example, schools don’t have competitive athletics. They are simply not prioritized. And schools often don’t have fields or even a blacktop. There are however very competitive youth leagues that are hard to make. And there are the occasional sports focused, state-run high schools, but they don’t compete interscholastically. In the UK, however, the posh and very exclusive “public schools” for boarders like Rugby, Eaton, etc., do have interscholastic sports, but not the state run schools. [/quote]
