• 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.
