Approximately 45 million children participate in some form of athletics. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected many aspects of their lives, including sports activities. Families are asking care givers questions about how best to ensure the safety of their children when returning to sports activities.

These include strengthening the recommendations for cloth mask wearing for all children engaging in vigorous sports and clarifications of cardiac risks to children who have had COVID-19.
