U.S. Sports & Fitness Participation Reaches Record High in New Mid-Year Report
August 20, 2026
U.S. sports and fitness participation reached a record high of 81.3% for the 12 months ending June 2026, driven largely by team sports. Basketball, flag football, baseball and soccer posted strong gains, while padel became the fastest-growing racquet sport; trail running and Pilates also continued to grow. However, only 32.7% of Americans meet the recommended 150 minutes of weekly moderate activity, and rising costs are already affecting participation decisions. SGB
