Project description
Children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD, also commonly referred to as motor dyspraxia) experience movement difficulties which often impacts on their ability to participate in physical activity. This project will evaluate the outcomes of an exercise intervention (Move2Engage: Youth) for children and youth with DCD aged 8-15 years and translate these outcomes into the broader community. This will create more opportunities for children and youth with DCD to lead more active and healthy lives.
