The primary reason why children quit their current sports activity in Denmark in 2016 was because they prioritized a different sport. Thus, most of the children did not stop practicing sports altogether. However, 30 percent of the respondents found a new hobby more interesting and therefore chose to spend time on that instead. Only three percent of the children experienced bullying as a reason to quit their sports activity altogether.
