Middle or High?

Which teams did they participate in?


Why the restriction to actual teams? A lot of sporty kids prefer individual sports. Lots of kids ski, snowboard, rock climb, bike, do archery etc. but very hard to form a team to compete if you're into that stuff. You mostly just do it with your friends and family.

6th grader plays no sports at school because they only offer running. Plays 2 rec sports and 1 travel sport outside of school.

People who answer are going to be disproportionately those who participate, but remember that only about half of kids do ANY organized sports (https://usafacts.org/articles/are-fewer-kids-playing-sports/)

We have three kids; one does a rec team and one does a school team. The third occasionally gets off the couch.
