The resolution acknowledges the significance of the Washington state sports community, particularly in light of hosting the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and emphasizes the importance of organized youth sports for the well-being of young people. It highlights that while over half of the youth in Washington participate in athletics, only 24% meet the recommended daily physical activity levels, and the state ranks low in youth well-being. The resolution points out existing disparities in access to sports, particularly for marginalized groups, and stresses the need for trained coaches and adequate facilities to support youth development and prevent injuries.

Furthermore, the resolution calls for the promotion of inclusive, affordable, and high-quality sports programs to ensure equitable access for all youth, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds. It advocates for the recognition of the value of trained athletic staff to create a safe and supportive environment for young athletes, as well as the promotion of nontraditional sports to broaden participation opportunities. Ultimately, the resolution celebrates youth sports initiatives as a vital means of enhancing the overall well-being of youth in Washington state.
