The 2018 Report Card for South Africa (SA) (Figure 1) presents the
latest available evidence relating to physical activity (PA) of SA
school-aged children since the 2016 Report Card. The absence of
nationally representative data remains a challenge for the compilation
of the 2018 grades. However, the findings from regional
studies are still highly informative, and continue to provide a
platform for advocacy in SA regarding the health and PA of SA
children and adolescents.
