      ab: A study was conducted to test the nature of the high school varsity sport-adult income relationship and investigate gender and class differences in the degree to which adult sporting practices mediate the varsity sport-adult income relationship. Data were drawn from a Scripps Howard/Ohio University national telephone survey of 1,025 adults conducted over a two-week period in June 1996. Findings revealed that participating in an organized team sport was positively associated with higher adult earnings and that adult participation in sports more strongly mediated this relationship for men than for women. The writer suggests a gendered theory of sports as cultural capital to explain these differences.
