Abstract
Physical activity has been shown to increase the physical and mental health of youth. Many rural and Indigenous communities offer sport programs. However, many of these sports are not highly accessible to youth for reasons such as social standing, gender, genetics, and physical fitness levels. The sport of Olympic wrestling if implemented correctly can be accessible to participants and could offer Indigenous youth another, more accessible option of physical activity. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the impact of developing and implementing an Olympic wrestling program with Indigenous youth. Working within a Community Based Participatory Research framework and the Indigenous School Health framework, the first part of this thesis examines the needs of the Indigenous community in question and determines how the Olympic wrestling program should be developed and implemented. Following the needs assessment, the program was developed, implemented, and evaluated and the results showed that some youth gained significant changes in their physical and mental health. The program was further evaluated by some of participating youth through the use of photovoice, which showed increases in youth self-perception and self-esteem. Lastly, the changes in youths’ holistic health were determined to have improved after competing with a team of other Indigenous youth at a major competition. The Olympic wrestling program continues in the community with little help from the researcher and is showing a strong likelihood of being offered for the foreseeable future. Thus, this thesis demonstrates that by first creating a relationship built upon reciprocity, respect, and relationality, between implementers and an Indigenous community, in which the researcher is a resource and conduit to be used by the community, a highly accessible sport program such as Olympic wrestling, may have a positive impact on Indigenous youths’ physical and mental health.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
