Clinton speaks with James Kay, PhD student from Flinders University College of Education, Psychology and Social Work, about a new study published in the International Journal of Sport Policy and Politics that introduces the ‘Participation Re-Engagement (PRE) Model.’

This dynamic model outlines seven phases of youth sport participation, offering a flexible approach for clubs to boost retention and re-engage those who have dropped out.

Mr Kay emphasises that sport participation isn’t just about starting and stopping; the PRE model views dropout as an opportunity for clubs to reconnect and encourage ongoing involvement.
