In Episode #24, I discuss how socioeconomics plays a vital, almost solely, role in youth sports participation. I discuss how the rising costs of youth sports and the ever growing popularity of Club and Travel sports affect the participation numbers in 'Traditional' sports leagues. I also cover the difficulties families with a Low SES (Socioeconomic Status) are adversely affected by the emergence of Club and Travel sports. I have a Q & A with my guest who is working on her PhD in this area. We discuss a wide range of topics that affect youth sports participation. In the end, I offer my 'Three Takeaways.'
As always, thanks for listening. Take Care
