Abstract
There are many types of sports actively played in the United States but organized sports leads in terms of popularity and participants. It is estimated that about 50 million youths and children are engaged in organized sports across the country. In addition, research also shows that about 75% of U.S. families whose children are in school have at least one of those children actively engaged in an organized sport. Just by generally looking into the American population one would conclude that the children are leading healthier and happier lives through their engagement in organized sports in their various sports clubs at school or at local sports clubs. Families may seem to be generally satisfied by the engagement of their children in organized sports. However, the facts on the ground are of a contrary perspective; statistics show the prevalence of obesity among school-going children and worse still, the epidemic is alarmingly increasing to a present tune of 1 out of every 3 children being. Most youths especially those in their teenage years have obesity issues and are leading sedentary lifestyles.
