Hello all! Hope you had a great day.... I'm stuck on this question for my GCSE PE and it's pretty hard. :bricks:

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas... :ninja:

How does age effect which sports you take part in?

I take GCSE PE too! Do you enjoy it?

Basically, age affects participation in sports in many ways. Obviously, teenagers are much more flexible in the sports they can do that older people.
Children are stronger, more flexible, have a better oxygen capacity and less prone to injuries. This makes them be able to do much more sports than older people.
You would not see an old person participating in gymnastics!
