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.

you are vastly over estimating how hard highschool sport is to get into. If you have never played a sport before highschool, you can probiably make the team. No one I know watches highschool sport except maybe their home team at home comming, or if their child is playing. but do well in highschool sports and you are more likely to get a college scholarship.
College is not even that big except for basketball and baseball
5 year olds are on sports teams because its good exercise and an opportunity to work as a team, and because they usually want to.
