Over the last 14 years, Delaware has seen reduced participation in high school sports. In the National Federation of High Schools’ High School Athletics Participation Survey for 2022-2023, there was a decline of 6% in teenagers participating in their school sports. For example, A.I Dupont has seen a decline in student participation. Their girl’s basketball team won the championship in 2015 against Saint Marks, but over the years their roster size has decreased and they weren’t able to put a team together for the 2018-19 season.
