1
What is meant by a barrier to participation?
Model answer
A barrier to participation is anything that stops people taking part in physical activity. Barriers can be practical, social or personal.
2

Model answer
Club fees, equipment and travel can be expensive. People on low incomes may be priced out.
3
How can time be a barrier to participation?
Model answer
Work, study and caring responsibilities leave little free time. Busy adults often drop out of regular activity.
4
How can access be a barrier to participation?
Model answer
Some areas lack nearby facilities or safe places to exercise. Poor transport and inaccessible venues also exclude people.

How can gender stereotypes be a barrier to participation?
Model answer
Stereotypes can suggest some sports are not for women or men. Fear of judgement discourages some people from taking part.
6
How can disability be a barrier to participation?

Inaccessible facilities and a lack of adapted sessions limit disabled people's options. Negative attitudes can also discourage them.
