STATE of PLAY: BALTIMORE STUDY FOCUS AREA: EAST BALTIMORE Specifically, a Roughly Two-Square-Mile Area of East Baltimore ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS TABLE OF CONTENTS WELCOME 1 SCOREBOARD 2 THE 8 PLAYS 7 CALL FOR LEADERSHIP 24 GAME CHANGER 26 The Children & Youth Fund IDEAS 28 APPENDICES 30 ENDNOTES 34 The Aspen Institute thanks Under Armour for its support of this report and Project Play: Baltimore THE VISION A Baltimore in which all children have the opportunity to be active through sports WELCOME Baltimore has a rich history of developing its children and communities through sports, from the early days of Babe Ruth, to the proliferation of recreation centers in the 1960s and ’70s, to the rise of the most decorated Olympian in history, Michael Phelps. Sports are baked into the DNA of this unique city. The Aspen Institute aims to help Baltimore tell its best sports story yet. Project Play: Baltimore, our first model community effort, will identify and facilitate opportunities for leaders to grow the quality and quantity of youth sport opportunities. Our specific focus is on a two-square-mile area of East Baltimore (see map on page 4), where Under Armour helped renovate a recreation center in 2016 and asked us to assist stakeholders throughout the area – so lessons can be learned and shared with other communities around the city and the country. This report offers an assessment of the current state of play for kids and sports in the area. Our work is anchored in the notion that all stakeholders will benefit if all youth are provided access to a quality sport experience. We know this from the body of research that has emerged over the past decade establishing the myriad benefits of physical activity. It’s asso- ciated with greater cognitive function, positive mental health, better educational outcomes, and lower health-care costs in adulthood. A virtuous cycle gets unleashed, especially if children can be engaged in regular sport and physical activity before age 12. The Aspen Institute Sports & Society Program produced this State of Play report, analyzing sport programs and facilities in East Baltimore through the eight strategic filters (“plays”) highlighted in the Aspen Institute’s seminal 2015 report, Sport for All, Play for Life: A Playbook to Get Every Kid in the Game. Supporting Aspen is the Project Play: Baltimore Advisory Group, which consist of local leaders across several key sectors. We hope the report informs short- and long-term community strategies related to the broad spectrum of sport opportu- nities for youth (through age 17). Should stakeholders create the conditions to get and keep all city youth physically active, the projected downstream benefits are huge: $1.4 billion in direct medical costs saved and economic productivity losses averted, according to the Global Obesity Prevention Center at Johns Hopkins University (see Appendix D). Plus, lives can be lengthened, in this case by a collective total of more than 54,000 years. We applaud the desire of Baltimore stakeholders to improve the lives of youth through sports. We encourage you to seize the opportunity to be a national model. It’s there for the taking, with collective, sustained action guided by our findings. Sincerely, Tom Farrey Andre Fountain Executive Director, Aspen Institute Project Coordinator, Aspen Institute Sports & Society Program Sports & Society Program THE STATE OF PLAY IN BALTIMORE CITY SCOREBOARD Among high schools students, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance study (2015): ON THE WHOLE, FEW YOUTH ARE ACTIVE ENOUGH 26% 16% Only 26% of Baltimore City males and 16% of females met the CDC’s recommendation of 60 minutes of physical activity daily. 42% 32% 18% 29% Males Females Males Females 5x 5x a week a week were active on five or more days during the past week. were completely sedentary in the past week.
