Abstract
The paper examines the impact of the COVID-19 shutdown on Danish children and ad-olescents’ physical activity. In addition, the role of schools and sports associations in supporting the physical activity of children during the closure is assessed. The paper is based on a cross-sectional survey with children and adolescents aged 6-16 years, conducted during the second COVID-19 shutdown (winter 2021). The paper presents data from 1,229 children and adolescents’ physical activity before and during the clo-sure. These results are discussed in relation to the effects of changing the context for children and adolescents’ normal physical activity.
