Powers, Holly S.; Conway, Terry L.; McKenzie, Thomas L.; Sallis, James F.; Marshall, Simon J.
Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, v73 n2 p187-92 Jun 2002
Evaluated student participation in structured, on-campus extracurricular activities at 24 middle schools. Overall, boys and girls participated at similar rates (except for intramurals). All schools offered multiple extracurricular activity programs, but due to low participation rates, the amount of physical activity obtained was minimal. Interscholastic programs provided more hours of activity per week than intramurals, clubs, or other programs. (SM)
