Abstract
First paragraph: The COVID-19 pandemic has hit different countries with varying intensity, responding to the crisis has presented an unprecedented challenge to most governments both in terms of scale and in the depth of impact on health, on the economy and on citizens’ well-being. Many challenges remain if countries are to successfully recover and build back better the next time. Many countries are still trying to understand and respond to the impact of long Covid. Real-time sharing of lessons is critical for ongoing crisis response, for recovery efforts and for increasing organizational resilience in the long run. The qualitative analysis captured in this research provides an organisational voice and critical reflection upon what worked, what did not work and for whom in terms of sport for youth in Canada and Scotland
