Children's Sports Club Rates Vary Across Danish Municipalities

Your local municipality affects how often your children play sports in Denmark.

A study from the University of Southern Denmark shows large local variations.

On average, about 73 percent of children across Denmark join sports clubs.

However, participation rates differ widely between municipalities.

Allerød ranks highest with 82 percent of children active in local clubs.

Meanwhile, Brøndby has the lowest participation rate at 58 percent.

In several municipalities, over 80 percent of children play sports monthly.

This reporting relies on data published by The Copenhagen Post.
