How did we ever get sports all tied up in schools anyway? It's totally misplaced. I never realized how much better until I started understanding how the Europeans did sport with the local clubs and all from little kids all the way up to adults. Way better concept than making it part of school.
It's a misplaced idea, I agree. We need to drill into kids and teenagers good fitness and exercise habits that will serve them well throughout life and hopefully combat the obesity problem we have in the US...not teach them how to play worthless games that will have no bearing on them once they leave school.
