In the words of Tom Hull, "we are failing our kids, monumentally."
We all believe that sports, like rowing, matter. And we know, it's not just about physical health.
It’s about building:
Socio-emotional health
Bonds of friendship and community
And healing from the traumas that happen in every life.
Right here in King Country, 81% fail to get the minimum exercise recommended by the CDC.
It’s even worse if you’re a girl: 84% versus 78% for boys.
If you’re in a home that doesn’t speak English, it also gets worse:
89% don’t get the minimum exercise
3X as many have NEVER participated in an organized sport
Add to that the damage caused by COVID-19.
So far, we know the impacts include:
A 45% drop in practice hours for organized sports
65% of adolescent athletes reporting anxiety symptoms,
25% of them severe
30% say they’re not interested in getting back into their sport
Without the benefits that sports provide, kids are facing increased anxiety and a lack of community belonging. The pandemic has only accentuated the statistics.
