how can we encourage our youth to take part in sports

We have to show the exmple the question is... we have to stimulate them or make our life better and health?

i think it's a good start and a great thing for outsiders. but i think the best encouragement comes from active parents who participate in sports themselves. it starts young with parents getting excited and involved in their childs activities. then the child develops the love of the sport over time and continues it.
