In brief

Adolescent's poor sleep habits have been linked to adverse outcomes.

The primary objective is to determine the mean differences in Fitbit accelerometer sleep quantity (mins) between High School student-athletes and non-athletes during a competitive academic semester over continuous monitoring for two weeks.
