[quote=Anonymous]Many, many parents must be spending these amounts. According to this article, $10 BILLION was spent on youth sports alone in 2016 (think must include the building of massive sports centers). Individual spending has increased 10% (!) in the last two years. I’m starting to think if my kids want megabucks they should skip college and get involved in the youth sports industry! At these numbers, it cannot be only the wealthy who are participating in $ youth sports. The truly wealthy don’t bother. That leaves a whole swath of middle and UMC families participating. https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/articles/2017-07-31/communities-banking-on-mega-youth-sports-complexes[/quote]
