Since March 2020 in Chile, it affected the participation of children and youth athletes as well in education, physical activity and sports. In an effort to assess the scarce available evidence about return to sport and exercise in children and adolescents post COVID-19 pandemic and gather the opinion of experts of 4 Chilean scientific and academic societies (Sociedad Chilena de Medicina del Deporte, Sociedad Chilena de Pediatría, Sociedad Chilena de Kinesiología Deportiva and Consejo Académico Nacional de Educación Física) we have produced recommendations for a safe return to activities in Physical Activity and Health class, School Sports and Federation Sports to reduce the risks associated with the effects of confinement and to avoid the propagation of COVID-19 and. Additionally, a recommendation for parents and teachers and a another for physicians for surveillance and evaluation of children and
adolescents who were or will become COVID-19 patients and wish to return to sports end exercise.
