SPRT.2200 Youth and Sports
How does the category of age shape one's experiences with sport? From playgrounds to competitive travel leagues, children and youth engage with informal and formal sports across a variety of settings. During the semester, we will examine how youth navigate sports in schools and communities as well as note their relationship to sports media, amateur and professional sports, and understandings of health and the body. This course will also address how youth navigate race, class, gender, and sexuality across sporting contexts.
