A study found an association between youth participation in non-contact or team sports (such as soccer or basketball) and a reduction in behavioural and social problems and suggests more frequent participation may improve behaviour for a child genetically at risk for obsessive compulsive disorder. However, those participating in individual sports (such as gymnastics or tennis) had fewer differences in symptoms and those participating in contact sports (including football and hockey) had higher levels of rule-breaking behaviours.
