Physical Education - Promoting involvment in physical activity: positive
and negative influential factors - cost and time

Cost and time

- Events such as skiing, polo, golf, and equestrian events are high cost
sports and this can limit the people who are able to participate.

- This would have to be the single largest reason why people don't
participate in sport. School provides many pressures, especially during the
later years. Part-time jobs and other such activities encroach on time
available for sport. Many people take up sport again after they have
finished school.

Working full time and coping with the day-to-day responsibilities of
having a family are also very time-consuming, reducing the time available
for physical activity.
