Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The presented bar chart illustrates the popularity of sports played by New Zealander youngsters in 2002, measured by the percentage of girls and boys getting involved.

Generally, all sports were played by both girls and boys. However, while the figures for athletics, basketball and tennis showed no substantial differences, opposite trends were witnessed in those of remaining sports.

Turning into detail, boys tended to have higher interests in other sports and soccer, in which the nearly 25% of players was five-time higher than the figure for girls. Likewise, in comparison to male players of cricket and martial arts, which reached over 11% and about 10%, respectively, the figure for girls were also significantly lower, with 1% and 3% in the same order. By contrast, there were opposite trends in netball and swimming, with approximately 25% and about 22% of female players, while the rates for boys were only about 1% and 13%, respectively.

Regarding to other disciplines, considerable gaps between the number of males and females players were not presented in athletics, basketball and tennis. However, unlike basketball and tennis, in which boys’ percentages were slightly higher, there were more girls participating athletics, with approximately 5%, compared to about 3% of boys.
