Results from South Africa’s 2018 Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth

Abstract

The 2018 Report Card for South Africa (SA) (Figure 1) presents the
\nlatest available evidence relating to physical activity (PA) of SA
\nschool-aged children since the 2016 Report Card. The absence of
\nnationally representative data remains a challenge for the compilation
\nof the 2018 grades. However, the findings from regional
\nstudies are still highly informative, and continue to provide a
\nplatform for advocacy in SA regarding the health and PA of SA
\nchildren and adolescents.
