Socio-economic backgrounds significantly affect access to sports by determining the availability of resources such as facilities, coaching, and equipment. Athletes from lower socio-economic backgrounds may struggle with costs associated with participation, including fees for teams, travel, and gear. Conversely, those from affluent backgrounds often have greater access to training opportunities and exposure to competitive environments. This disparity can lead to unequal playing fields, where talent is overshadowed by economic limitations. Addressing these disparities is essential for fostering a more equitable sporting landscape.
