Why are high school and college sports SUCH a big deal in the States?

485 viewsOther

I know that the answer is ‘scholarships’ for college, but like, why? I’m in the UK and even schools that have a big reputation for sport are nowhere near as intense as the states. Reading parenting subs atm talking about signing up 5 year olds for specific sports so that they’ll have a shot of making the team in high school. That just feels insane to me.

Except they’re children and people put as much pressure on the teenage athletes as they would players of their local club
