        Summary
        Background. In the Netherlands, at least 14% of children and adolescents have a Chronic Medical Condition (CMC), often resulting in lower physical activity levels compared to healthy peers. Organized sports activities offer a way to be physically active, providing significant benefits, including improved quality of life, self-confidence, and well-being. The EXSEM-model suggests that improved physical skills from physical activity leads to increased physical acceptance. Objective. This study investigates changes in global selfesteem, athletic self-esteem, social acceptance, and physical activity following a 10-week organized sport intervention for children with a CMC. Method. The study involved 24- children with a CMC in a 10-week sport intervention, ‘FC Utrecht Experience’. Children completed questionnaires and physical activity tests measuring global self-esteem, athletic self-esteem, social acceptance, and physical activity before (T0) and after 10 training sessions (T1). The ‘Perceived Competence Scale for Children’ measured self-esteem, and social acceptance. Physical activity was measured with (a) self-perceived physical activity, (b) Actigraph GT9X Link accelerometer, and (c) proxy-report by parents. Results. A Paired- Sample T-Test measured changes in athletic self-esteem, while a Wilcoxon-Signed-Ranked test assessed the other variables. Significant positive changes were found in athletic selfesteem and self-perceived physical activity. No additional changes were observed. Conclusion. Participation in organized sports activities enhances athletic self-esteem and selfperceived physical activity in children with CMC. These findings align with the EXSEMmodel, emphasizing the importance of athletic self-esteem and increased physical selfefficacy through physical activity.
