Low Youth Participation in Sports in Kuwait and the Impact of School Programs on Developing Athletic Talent
Authors/Creators
Description
Abstract: Youth participation in sports in Kuwait remains relatively low despite growing awareness of the health, social, and psychological benefits associated with physical activity. This study investigates the factors influencing limited engagement in sports among Kuwaiti youth and evaluates the role of school programs in cultivating athletic talent. Data were collected through surveys of students, interviews with physical education teachers, and an analysis of school sports infrastructure. Results indicate that school programs significantly impact skill development, motivation, and participation rates. The findings highlight the need for policy interventions to enhance youth involvement in sports through improved access, structured programs, and incentivized participation.
Keywords: Youth sports participation, Kuwait, school programs, athletic talent development, physical education.
