The Center for Sports Research has calculated how many times each individual between the ages of 7-20 plays sports in one year.

What distinguishes the top ten municipalities is that they are prosperous municipalities where the inhabitants there often have a high income and a high level of education.

A municipality like Halmstad where the municipality has a zero tariff for plant rents is in the middle of the list.

The fact that the costs for the associations are reduced does not automatically mean that children will play more sports. 

- We have the big challenge that members choose to leave the sport, especially during adolescence.

Young people opt out or do not have the opportunity to be a part of it.

- It is something that we do wrong and something that we have to do differently.

We need to become much better at listening to young people's experience of sports and athletics, says Malin Träff, responsible for children and youth sports at the Swedish Sports Confederation.
