Stupid idea,
It's been looked into plenty of times, while getting your kids active is a good idea, generally active in shape people live longer and survive more diseases and problems then those that aren't.
In the end you just cost more to the health care system as you live longer and survive a bit more.
That said.
Hockey $650
Hockey $200
Hockey $225
Hockey $235
Gym membership $350
Swim Coach $300
Various event fees $500+
Spin Classes $150
Yoga $150
$2760.
That's just off the top of my head. Nevermind associated costs.
I also agree that places would just bump their fees, trainers would make more, etc. I'd rather see the money put directly into facilities than back in users pockets.
