Overview

The goal of this study is to determine whether a data coaching process called Out of School Time Coach (OST-Coach) can increase child physical activity (PA) behavior, perceived motor competence, and staff PA-promoting practices.

Aim 1: Determine the impact that the OST-Coach intervention has on child PA behavior and perceived motor competence. The investigators hypothesize that integrating a targeted data coaching system will increase the amount of PA children engage in during the OST program and enhance their perceived motor competence compared to sites receiving standard practice.

Aim 2: Assess the impact of the OST-Coach intervention on staff PA-promoting practices. The investigators will measure the effectiveness of the OST-Coach intervention by observing staff behavior and assessing their willingness to integrate evidence-based practices during OST programming. It is hypothesized that OST leaders at intervention sites will implement more PA-promoting practices.

Child physical activity will be measured via systematic observation and a survey assessing perceived motor competence. Staff PA-promoting behaviors will be observed via systematic observation and evaluated through a survey to understand the impact of the data coaching process. The intervention is delivered at the staff level, with feedback provided four times throughout the academic year.
