Abstract

Sport Schools is an educational project of after-school physical activity (PA) developed by the Andalusian Government (Spain) to promote PA and to prevent the obesity among school-aged children. The aim of this study was to observe changes in body composition, PA levels, and cardiorespiratory fitness during application of the Sport Schools program in one school year (2011/2012). Non-experimental study design with measures taken at the beginning and at the end of the mentioned school year. The sample was 1713 teenagers (12-16 yr.) who were attending secondary education in Andalusia (Spain). Body mass index and cardiorespiratory fitness were evaluated with objective measures, PA using a validated questionnaire. The Sport Schools program had greater acceptance among boys than girls, and among the adolescents of both sexes with higher levels of PA and cardiorespiratory fitness than those with lower levels of this variables. During their implementation, we observed a decrease of PA levels and cardiorespiratory fitness in girls that was significant among those who did not participated in the program. Suggestions for improvement are offered in the Discussion section.
