Parents should help their children to try new activities and get interested in sport, according to boxer Amir Khan.
The Bolton fighter, who currently holds the world super lightweight belt, and is an ambassador for the British Asian Sports Awards, said that youngsters are the "future of sport" and need support from their guardians.
"My parents [have] supported me since the age of eight in boxing and look where I am know – and [to] think [that] without them I wouldn't be in this position," he stated.
Khan went on to say that the Olympic Games in London in 2012 will be the ideal chance to pique children's interest in sports, where they will be able to see a whole host of different activities on offer.
Earlier today (February 10th), the route for the Olympic cycling route was unveiled, starting and ending in The Mall, taking riders through west London and out to Surrey and back.
