Abstract

Physical activities are nowadays a big part of our society, and have become a part of our culture and are essential to achieve a healthy way of life. We hypothesised that the practice of scholar sports can help children’s development at the school age. For that reason, we had analysed children’s beliefs and those activities they prefer to join in their leisure time. Among other factors, we studied this population by age, gender and location. The results showed us that 85% of the students at the school age of the Murcia Region liked sports and enjoyed the practice of it.
