Background:

EuroFIT is a gender-sensitized health program for men, delivered via football clubs to encourage lifestyle changes.
It targets physical activity, sedentary behavior, and diet, leveraging football interest for engagement.
The program is evaluated in a multicenter pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) involving ~1000 overweight men aged 30-65.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the implementation of the EuroFIT program within a multicenter RCT.
To investigate the processes through which EuroFIT affects health and lifestyle outcomes in men.
To provide recommendations for optimizing the program for future implementation and broader health initiatives.

Main Methods:

A mixed-methods process evaluation guided by MRC guidance for complex interventions.
Data collection included participant and coach questionnaires, attendance logs, observations, and usage data from self-monitoring devices (SitFIT) and a social support app (MatchFIT).
Interviews with coaches and club representatives, and focus groups with participants were conducted across 15 football clubs in four countries.

Main Results:

The process evaluation will detail implementation requirements and outcome effects within the RCT.
Analysis will focus on how the program was implemented across different countries and clubs.
Findings will highlight the processes linking EuroFIT to outcomes, considering the football club context.

Conclusions:

The evaluation provides a comprehensive account of EuroFIT's implementation and impact.
Results will inform program optimization for post-trial rollout and future health promotion strategies.
The study offers insights for developing health and wellbeing initiatives through professional sports clubs.
