What I would love to see is more intramural sports at the H.S. level. We have some of this, I've heard of lunchtime doge-ball & basketball tournaments. But they are informal & parents don't necessary hear about it if a child isn't involved. All of the larger pubic university's in my area have extensive intramural sports for their students. These are informal groups of students, who play low stakes games mostly for the fun & exercise.

I so agree with this! Only I'd love to see it earlier than HS. I'd like to see more sports "clubs" whose point is exercise and fun. I have one child who is not athletic and has never wanted to play "real" sports, but would play pickup games for fun. There is nothing for her.
