Remember When You Were Young?
Developing life skills through sports
Playing sport helps children learn to control their emotions and channel negative feelings in a positive way. It also helps children to develop patience and understand that it can take a lot of practice to improve both their physical skills and what they do in school.
Teamwork Makes the Dream Work
Teamwork is an important life skill. It’s also an essential part of team sports. Participation in sports allows kids to make lasting friendships, develop communication skills, feel a sense of community and learn to respect their teammates and coaches.
Mental, Social, Emotional Benefits
A correlation has been found between regular exercise and mental health among students in general as they move into the teenage years. Children who reported no exercise were twice as likely to have mental health problems.
