Young athletes are now able to access the sport(s) of their choice through private enterprise and programming outside of the more traditional environment. Organized youth sports are highly popular for youth and their families, with approximately 45 million children and adolescent participants in the United States. Seventy-five percent of American families with school-aged children have at least one child participating in organized sports.
