Youth’s baseline rating of leadership experience, number of friends attending BGC, diversity of youth activities at Club, and self-rating of whether youthbehaves fairly are included as control variables because they were predictors of attendance. Data derive from youth surveys and Club attendance information.Excluded categories are females, Latino/a youth, eighth graders, no free lunch and Omaha. A separate regression was run for each outcome. The standardizedcoefficients from the Poisson regressions are standardized odds ratios. The R 2 for the logistic regressions are max rescaled R 2 .+p
