With an estimated four billion followers around the world, football has long been a global game. But people aren’t only drawn to the entertainment and glory, they also appreciate some of the many benefits that come with playing the sport as well as specialised football training. In fact, personal football coaching delivers benefits to players of any age, particularly children. That’s why football camps, football coaching courses and personal fitness training continue to grow in popularity across the Billericay area.
We understand that introducing your child to a sport can often be a daunting prospect, so we have outlined below some of the primary benefits that children receive when playing football, or attending football training, on a regular basis.
Every few months or so the news contains stories about record numbers of overweight or obese children. Needless to say, it’s a worrying trend, but it’s not always easy to find a physical workout that kids enjoy.
Football represents a fantastic cardiovascular workout that also improves strength and flexibility. Even in the most general sense, a child who attends football training regularly becomes physically fit very quickly.
Our football camps and personal football coaching make the ideal introduction to a new world of fitness.
The action on the field goes on all around the players, so they quickly learn how to adapt their concentration to take in the unfolding events. With improved focus and attention to detail, children in Billericay not only start to excel on the pitch, but in other areas of life too.
In fact, ‘hand-eye coordination’ may simplify the much wider benefits. With a greater control of their entire body and its movements, children who regularly attend football training or personal fitness training often get drawn to other sports as well.
If a child doesn’t participate in any kind of sport, it becomes difficult to learn how to work well within a team. Working together in a coordinated effort to try and win a game, trusting teammates to do their part as you do yours and learning to understand that sometimes an individual might make a mistake; all these vital lessons set children up for their adult lives.
Here at TEK LAB, our football coaching courses, football camps and personal fitness training help to lay these foundations while focusing on fun and engaging sessions.
Youth football teams in Billericay and the surrounding areas often bring together children with varying levels of experience and ability. As such, they swiftly learn the importance of patience, empathy, encouragement and forgiveness. What’s more, our football coaching courses and personal fitness training programs also help to build valuable self-esteem.
Children with an interest in football training and playing in leagues invariably watch their idols play on the television too. This adds a further benefit of learning about different countries and cultures.
