However, little to no research has scrutinized whether adolescent health and educational achievement vary from sport to sport. First, the Women’s Sports Foundation is indebted to the study authors, Nicole Zarrett, Ph. D. , Philip Veliz, Ph. D. , and Don Sabo, Ph. D. We’re proud to be associated with such creative and excellent researchers and writers. We are grateful to Bruce Y. Lee, M. D. , M. B.A. , the primary author of the policy recommendations, for his thoughtful and thorough development of recommendations that can lead to improvements in how teens experience sport.  \nWe are deeply indebted to Deborah Slaner Larkin, who originally championed the idea that each sport might make unique contributions to the health and well-being of American youth and that understanding these benefits would ultimately lead to more opportunities for youth to play sports. She was a powerful advocate and supporter for this line of research when she served as the Executive Director of the USTA Serves (now Foundation) and oversaw the development and conduct of the research that resulted in More Than A Sport: Tennis, Education, and Health, a first-of-its-kind nationwide study that compared the educational and health profiles of adolescent tennis participants with participants in other non-contact sports and contact sports, as well as high school students who did not participate in sports. Later, as WSF CEO, she made this line of research an organizational priority, helped conceptualize the project, and made many important contributions to the final report.  \nThe panel of scholars, health policy experts, and youth sport leaders who reviewed the findings and the policy recommendations provided invaluable feedback that improved the final report immensely.  \nRenee Cadzow Ph.
