Young People - Participation Our participation rates are falling The issue of falling participation rates is not unique to New Zealand A lack of physical activity is 1 of the 10 leading risk factors for global mortality and is on the rise in many countries Falling participation rates can be attributed to many factors Young Women’s Engagement in Sport 2011 Lack of choice Overly competitive environments Lack of confidence Body Image Boys Sport is under-valued Influence of friends and family Lack of time

Young People - Challenges Early specialisation Winning focus Provision is (frequently) not about the young person and their needs/wants Plenty of competition for young persons time/resources Pressure on teachers (sport coordinators) Losing integrity in some areas Pressure on the good kids

Young People We intend to overcome the challenges to participation so all young people regardless of gender, ethnicity, ability or socio economic background can enjoy being active and develop that lifelong love of being physically active.
