“…Physical activity (PA) is an important health behaviour that is associated with a multitude of physical and psychological health benefits (Ahn & Fedewa, 2011;Kirkcaldy et al, 2002;Motta, McWilliams, Schwartz, & Cavera, 2012;Pate et al, 2013) and -due to the social interaction that often occurs as part of PA participation -is associated with benefits for young people's social development (Eime et al, 2013). While there is limited evidence regarding the PA levels of young people in care, the evidence that is available demonstrates that this population do not meet PA recommendations (i.e., 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity on a daily basis, Dowda et al, 2009;Vincent & Jopling, 2018;World Health Organisation, 2010). Indeed, one study in the United States found that young people in foster care or residential care were less likely to achieve PA recommendations when compared to their peers in the general population, who lived at home with their parents (i.e., single parent, two parents, and step-parents) (Ornelas, Perreira, & Ayala, 2007).…”
