Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated cities in the world. With such a large population sports centers have a high likelihood to succeed in this region. According to a report published by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (2013-2014), the concept of recreational and sports facilities for children is on the rise. In an article by Baxter & Jack (2008), the authors define a single case study as an approach to research where a specific phenomenon is analyzed within its context using a variety of various data sources. In this research, a single case study design was applied so as to explore the participation of children in sports centers, and their perception about sports in general.

Since this case required only a stand-alone method of data collection, there was a need for setting up in-depth interview with the top managers of children sports centers in Hong Kong. For this research we chose C2 Sports center and WonderKids sports center. This will ensure that we get the responses directly from experienced individuals in the sector. A good number of the children shook their head in agreement to the fact that social interaction with their friends was their main reason that influenced their participation levels. Moreover, the influence on other children and peers on their participation in the number sports activity they partake in has been previously confirmed by other researchers such as Chan et al. (2012) and Salvy et al.

Both researchers confirmed that peer relationships and interactions were the main reasons children and adolescents gave for participating in sports centers. The data analysis also showed that parental influence also played an important role for children engaging in sports (Lijuan et al (2017). This limitation meant that the findings of the study could not be generalized on a broader population. Contrarywise, the researchers were able to conduct in-depth, focused research in a school thorough utilizing only one case study environment. In the future, the investigation should involve looking at a broader population of participants to include more schools for the research. On the same note, future research could also perform a school base comparison finding within the local authority and cities as well.
