text: Most of the time sports is what keeps kids of the streets. Kids easily would miss school but most kids that play sports have specific rules of what they have to do, how they can stay on the team, and many other things like that. Many kids just want to have fun, sports sometimes involves their fun. They may not mention that to a lot of people, but if they enjoy it. They see it as fun. If you want athletes to do better in school and still be able to play sports, you should open an after school program. Which is meant for kids to do better in school and not drop out or get bad grades in school. Stay in school do well and have fun at the same time, that would be great.
