Brief Summary:
This study evaluates the impact of the "11 For Health" program-an innovative football-based health education initiative-on children's physical fitness, health status, health knowledge, and pro-health behaviors. Originally implemented in African and South American countries, the program has been adapted and successfully introduced in European and Asian countries. The intervention consists of structured football sessions integrating health education messages aimed at promoting a healthy lifestyle among schoolchildren. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of this program in enhancing both physical fitness and health-related outcomes in comparison to traditional physical education classes
Detailed Description:
This randomized controlled trial (RCT) will include children from schools that have volunteered to participate in the project. These schools will be assigned to clusters, which will then be randomly allocated to one of two groups: the control group, following the standard physical education curriculum, or the intervention group, participating in the "11 For Health" program over an 11-week period (two sessions per week, 45 minutes each). Within each school, all students in a given cluster will be assigned to the same group to ensure consistency and minimize potential contamination.
Structure of the "11 For Health" Program The "11 For Health" programis a football-based program combined with structured health education content which consists of 11 structured sessions, each lasting 90 minutes and divided into two parts: • "Play Football" - A practical football-based component where children engage in skill-building exercises such as passing, dribbling, and shooting. • "Play Fair" - A theoretical component focused on health education, where key health-related topics (e.g., nutrition, hygiene, physical activity) are introduced through interactive discussions and activities.A new football-related topic paired with an appropriate health message will be discussed each week. Each session follows a standardized manual that outlines learning objectives, football exercises, and health messages. The program is designed to foster both physical engagement and health awareness, reinforcing messages through active participation. Children in the intervention group will participate in the "11 For Health" program during their weekly physical education lessons. In the Polish education system, children typically have 180 minutes of physical education per week. Of this, 90 minutes will be dedicated to the "11 For Health" program, while the remaining time will be spent on the standard physical education curriculum. This will allow for a direct comparison of the impacts of the program against the standard curriculum.
Participants will undergo baseline (pre-test) and post-intervention (post-test) assessments to evaluate physical fitness, health-related knowledge, wellbeing, body composition, health status, and pro-health behaviors. Physical tests and questionnaires will be used to measure outcomes. Physical fitness will be assessed using tests evaluating balance, muscular strength, aerobic capacity, agility, and endurance. Body composition will be analyzed through anthropometric measurements and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), while cardiovascular health will be evaluated by measuring resting heart rate and blood pressure. Health-related knowledge, wellbeing, dietary habits, and physical activity levels will be assessed using questionnaires. Following the intervention, children in the experimental group will report their level of enjoyment of the program and football in general using a 5-point Likert scale. Teachers will complete questionnaires assessing program feasibility, acceptability, and implementation challenges. After the program's completion and data collection, a comparative analysis of the results from both groups will be conducted to determine the impact of the "11 For Health" program in improving physical fitness, health knowledge, health status, overall well-being and pro-health behaviors.
