Developing a strategy for promoting athletic participation at the high school level : benefits of athletic participation

At today's school, students are required to focus more on physical, psychological, social and emotional development than ever before. An easy and convenient way to help students develop these areas is to encourage them to participate in school sports teams. A comparative study of Badger's high school participation shows that the level of participation is slightly higher than the national average but far lower than the state average. Therefore, the question of why this happens is further examined. BHS students who use random sampling reflect their grades, gender and participation status, and surveys are distributed and decide why they will participate in sports. Students and parents of the BHS coach need to participate. It turned out that the main motivation for participation in BHS was to improve the health and performance of the body. This study is believed to clarify the reasons for not participating, such as low physical ability, lack of friends involvement or lack of confidence to try high school sports. Instead, studies have shown that students who choose not to participate in sports choose to focus on other aspects of the school, such as participating in clubs and art, catching up with schools, etc. I will. This research will serve as a basis for further discussion to help increase the level of participation in Badger High School.
