Through this trial, the investigators will address the following aims: To demonstrate implementation feasibility and fidelity of the Duke community-based intervention model into an online model. The investigators hypothesise that the evidence-based implementation strategy tested in the US with Parks and Recreation will be adaptable for use at Duke-National University Singapore (NUS) with Singapore Sport, leading to online implementation within a 3-month period, and children in the intervention will receive up to 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity per session. To meet current recommendations for intensity of obesity treatment. As compared with usual care, the investigators hypothesise that children in the online intervention will be more likely to receive >25 hours over 6 months of treatment. To estimate the effectiveness of the online intervention. Children who participate in the online intervention, as compared with usual care, will demonstrate improvements in health outcomes at 6-months, including cardiorespiratory fitness, weight-related quality of life and stabilisation or reduction in BMI at 6 months.
