BBC News recently reported a study that found only 10% of school age children had the physical activity they needed for cardiovascular health. I don't know what the percentage in Thailand would be but I doubt its much better, indeed it might even be worse.
One of the complaints I have with Thai schooling is the lack of sports, especially team games which are good for developing social skills as well as giving the kids some exercise.
I would like to find some parents who would be interesting in organizing football or other games for kids with an age range of about 4 - 8. I have spoken to a few parents are keen on the idea and we have someone who is interested in doing the coaching, but we need more kids to make up the teams.

Both girls and boys would be good... I think that its important that kids should get used to playing with both sexes and with kids of different backgrounds.
