Good Sports recently teamed up with Harris Poll to survey parents across the U.S. about the rising costs of youth sports. The findings? Eye-opening. Families are facing significant challenges, with the rising costs making it harder than ever for kids to participate in organized sports. We're thrilled that Parents Magazine spotlighted the results in a recent article highlighting these pressing issues. The piece explored how costs for equipment, uniforms, travel, and participation fees are impacting families and the emotional toll that parents are facing when deciding whether or not they can continue to afford to keep their kids in sports. This data underscores the critical need to address the growing financial barriers in youth sports. By raising awareness, we can help ensure all kids have the chance to experience the lifelong benefits of sports. 📊 For a detailed look at the article, survey findings, and visual insights, visit https://bit.ly/4gFpsWy Let’s continue to work together to make play possible for every kid! 💪 #PlayForAll #CostOfPlay #GoodSports
