Soccer benefits children in many ways:
- Helps kids stay fit and healthy: Playing soccer is great exercise that improves cardiovascular health, increases coordination, improves strength and enhances flexibility.
- Involves teamwork: Soccer players have to work together as a team in order to be successful. Teamwork is a skill needed to be successful in school, work and family
- Improves gross motor skills: This is especially important for kids that are weak in this area. It helps strengthen core muscles thereby allowing kids to be more physically active thus healthier.
- Boosts self-confidence and self-esteem: Playing a sport, such as soccer, helps kids gain confidence in themselves. They become more comfortable learning new things and performing in front of a crowd.
