- The delivery system for participatory
Sport to children and adults is irreparably broken or completely
non-responsive.
- In most places, schools, parks
and playgrounds are no longer the preferred or even viable vehicles
for delivering participatory Sport.
- Lifestyle Sports are shunned.
- Team Sports have inferior facilities
and programs.
- Participatory Sport programs are
increasingly being delivered through:
- Volunteer and often parent-driven
organizations;
- Private organizations; or
- Public/private partnerships.
- Coaching as a profession remains
in severe decline, yet at the same time the use of paid private
coaches and the demand for specialty camps and clinics are skyrocketing.
- Freelance private coaches and trainers
still are increasing rapidly with no meaningful quality control.
- The delivery systems for Sport have fundamentally
changed.
- New delivery systems need to be and are
being created.
