Abstract
Quality inclusive physical activity (PA) programmes have demonstrated vast benefits for individuals with (e.g.) and without disabilities. For example, among people with disabilities, PA participation is related to enhanced social inclusion, reduced risk for secondary health conditions, optimised physical functioning, and improved overall well-being. Although the benefits of PA are well documented, children and youth with disabilities are less likely to participate in PA compared to those without disabilities.
