A weakness of study would be the attitude; if girls had the same athletic opportunities, but very few joined the team because they didn’t like it, the data would be affected. No matter the amount of opportunities presented, if the sport or team isn’t liked, there will automatically be lesser people. Another weakness is the accuracy of our gathered data. There’s a large possibility that athletes dropped out or were ineligible after the season’s roster was completed. Since it’s based on varsity teams, it is possible that more junior varsity players moved up. Also, it’s based on the coach’s decision to how many additional players he or she wants on varsity after the needed amount.
