Free sports programs tested to get kids moving

NCT ID NCT05231837

Summary

This study tested whether making youth sports programs free and adding community outreach could help children from low-income families get more active. It involved 430 children, aged 6-12, from Minneapolis and Saint Paul over two years. Researchers compared parks that offered just free programs to those that also did extra outreach to families.
