Many people think not every youth athlete should get a trophy for participating in a sport. Participation awards are a waste of money. Additionally, if every child got a trophy, it will lose its value. It will also be unfair for the other youth athletes that really do try hard. According to the "Trophies for All" policy, youth athletes are being awarded with participation trophies. Not every youth athletes deserve a trophy. Participation awards are a waste of money. Instead of spending money on the trophies, the money can be put to better use such as better educating all the coaches. The money can also be used for better equipment. Spending money on trophies instead of things you may need for future references is pointless.
