Girls Sports on the Rise
Adding more options for students to get involved in athletics
continues to be a strong focal point of administrators across the
country. Likewise, having more options available for girls' sports
has risen in recent years. Nearly 19 percent of respondents said
they are going to add girls golf, girls bowling, and girls wrestling
in the next three years. An additional 14 percent said they plan
to add girls soccer and lacrosse in the coming years.
Other non-traditional sports administrators mentioned were
pickleball, girls flag football, eSports, triathlons, archery, beach
volleyball, and bass fishing among others. Shockingly the
most-selected answer was boys soccer with 22.7 percent of the
response, followed by girls golf and bowling.
Fundraising Efforts on the Rise
According to our results, fundraising efforts have been
raised from a year ago. The nine-year average of schools
where fundraising made up more than half of the athletic
budget was 15.9 percent, but in 2021 17.3 percent reported
that number - the highest number since our 2016-17 survey.
Also noteworthy was that 22.7 percent of respondents
reported fundraising accounted for zero percent of their athletic
budget. An additional 41.8 percent reported that fundraising
accounted for 20 percent or less of their athletic budget.
As was the case in 2020, the brunt of fundraising efforts
fell on coaches with 71 percent of the response with booster
clubs and the athletic director closely behind. With 32.7
percent of respondents reporting at least a two percent
decrease in their athletic budgets, administrators know they
need to make the most of every available dollar.
" We tried to minimize our reliance on outside coaches
and maximize teacher/coaches, have better cost controls
on uniforms and team apparel, and better cost controls on
equipment, " one administrator said.
Another administrator noted they " order only what is
necessary for the operation of the particular program.
Athletic boosters help with extras. We have also cut our paid
coaching staff. "
