Ms Sarah Keane:

I do not think the research shows a lack of opportunities for teams sports past a certain age. The research shows that what people are interested in past a certain age is individual sports. That may be because of family commitments, or the difficulty of trying to get a group of people together. They can do individual sports early in the morning or late at night. The research is not showing barriers around team sports, but rather that the preference is around individual sports after a certain stage.
