that unfortunately makes sense: school sports after class
I disagree that it makes sense. Get the sports out of the school system entirely and have them be community-based or similar. I think that should apply that to most extracurriculars. I participated in sports, band, theatre, etc. so it’s not like I just hated it (I would argue that art, band, choir, gym, etc. are still good to have in the curricula of schools, just not the traditionally after-school part).

Makes sense as an answer to why it’s so hard. Not that it’s a good answer.
Sports are part of the reason many students even go to school. Taking athletics away from school would have a significant effect on dropout rates.
