2001 NCYS Membership Survey
The 2008 NCYS Report on Trends and Participation in Organized Youth Sports is expected to be released on this website by June 1, 2008.
The National Council of Youth Sports (NCYS) is currently conducting a new study that will show a ten-year trend in organized youth sports. Thanks to the generous sponsorship of weplay.com, a new online network for youth sports, for their gracious support of this important market research.
From our previous research, NCYS learned the important role we play on behalf of the amateur youth sports industry. Technology practices, field & facility usage, and general trends in age & gender participation have provided invaluable insight into the youth sports industry. In addition, NCYS has utilized this information to further our advocacy work in the area of government relations & public policy issues such as: protecting the land for recreation facilities, child safety protection (PROTECT Act), and physical education, obesity & fitness issues.
NCYS is appreciative to its members for taking the time to participate in this study. NCYS will utilize the results of this trends study for effective future planning providing the most useful benefits and services to our members and to all those interested in trends and participation in organized amateur youth sports.
