Abstract	Physical educators should strive to discover and develop new and innovative ways to engage their students and create a more enjoyable atmosphere. In particular, identifying team sport games that engage all students in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), regardless of gender or skill level, should be explored. With a specific agenda of creating a fun activity that emphasized teamwork, cooperation, and sportsmanship, Mario Demers, a Canadian physical education professor, created Kin-Ball in the mid 1980s. Currently, the International Federation of Kin-Ball has over 3.8 million registered participants in North America (Canada and the United States), Europe (Belgium, France, Spain, Denmark, Switzerland, and Germany), and Asia. Nonetheless, there is no current research available concerning the sport with regard to physiological demand, skill acquisition, psychological aspects, or sociological issues. Given that the sport is becoming increasingly popular in physical education, together with the concern that students become more engaged in physical activity during their lessons, the specific question addressed in this study was: "To what extent does Kin-Ball provide players/students the opportunity to accumulate moderate-to-vigorous physical activity?"
