“…Among the cross-sectional studies, there was a rise in the proportion of physically inactive participants of Sports Day in Canada intending to engage in sport over four successive years (increasing from 35 to 40%) (White et al, 2016) and 27% of parents believed their children would be more active after a triathlon (Caperchione et al, 2021).
