Physical and mental benefits of playing soccer for kids

By: Poorvi Adavi

World Cup Soccer Camps and Clinics

To be successful in life one needs to learn from failure and losing, more than from winning. Every year millions of children are enrolled in sports related activities, not all of them make their mark on the field, but the lessons they learn between the foul lines make them skilled at dealing with the ups and downs of life.

While striving to win children learn about teamwork, leadership, sportsmanship, all of which contribute to their development as social citizens. In soccer, children work together to accomplish a task and eventually learn from their mistakes.

Soccer helps children be present in the moment. Which is the most precious skill required to excel in any field. The sport teaches kids to focus and builds their ability to concentrate and gauge a particular situation.

Physical and Mental Benefits of Playing Soccer for Kids

Fitter, healthier, happier

Playing soccer requires children to sprint after the ball and jog up and down the field. This builds endurance and helps children stay fit and agile. Children develop stronger muscles, bones, decreases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and lesser chances of becoming overweight. When children run to chase the ball, it becomes a hardcore aerobic activity which strengthens the heart and improves body?s ability to deliver oxygen to all its cells.

Build social skills

Winning a soccer game requires the whole team to work together. It requires children to    interact with each other. The game intrinsically focuses on the efforts of the entire team, rather than individual success. Hence, there is less pressure and more fun! There is a lot of competition and stress children go through off the field playing soccer will help them relax and reconnect with themselves.

Thinking on the run

Multitasking is a very precious skill to acquire in life. Soccer, requires players to make decisions while they are involved in chasing the ball. This nature of the sport, teaches kids to focus on different things and achieve the set goal. Whether we are involved in household or official tasks, fulfilling more than one task at a time to achieve a target is a must.

Reduces screen time

Let?s face it, kids are eternally addicted to phones, tablets and watching TV. Its scientifically proven that excessive screen time is damaging to a child?s physical and mental development. If you enroll your child in World Cup Soccer Camps & Clinics by Ruedi Graf, there will be less scope for playing video games or binge watching television. Children learn to mingle with each other, reduce stress and stay happy!

Develop self-esteem and self-confidence

At World Cup Soccer Camps and Clinics, we ensure that kids are applauded and encouraged on scoring a goal or playing tactfully. Over the years, we have observed that children feel good on being appreciated and wish to do more. This boosts their self-esteem and makes them confident individuals.

Above all, soccer requires a lot of self-discipline. Cultivating this from an early age can help in the development of child?s personality. The virtues that children learn from playing soccer are endless. Teamwork, time management, endurance, multitasking, decision making and most importantly learning that failure is a part of life and that one needs to learn from it.

Our main focus is helping children of all ages and abilities reach their full potential as a sports player. While our emphasis is on instruction, we do focus on the child as a whole when creating our little soccer stars. Here are 25 key tips for young soccer players:

  1. ? Have fun. Remember above all else that this is a game and you should learn to enjoy all aspects of it.
  2. ?Come prepared. If you come to the game prepared to play, then you can focus on playing. Have all your equipment packed ahead of time and ready to go?and remember to bring water.
  3. ?Be willing to try new things. If you are new to soccer, it will all be new. If you are not new, let your coaches push you past your comfort zone?try something new. Who knows, you might find you are good at it.
  4. ?Always carry around a ball wherever you go. The more you touch a ball, the better you will be at playing with the ball.
  5. ?Be a sponge. Listen, learn, try, and explore. Use all your senses to access whatever people are willing to teach you.
  6. ?Ask questions. This applies to everything. If you don?t know, ask. If you require clarification, get it. The more you ask and understand, the more you learn and the better you can apply the skills.
  7. ?Dribble. Learn to dribble forward, backwards, front and back?this is your most important skill. Do not just “kick” the ball, take it with you; carry it until it is time to pass.
  8. ?Pass the ball. Don?t try to be a hero every time. Learn to pass and learn it well.
  9. ?Watch games. Watch all the soccer games you can and see how others play. Learn from these.
  10. ?Understand positions. Learn the different positions and how they interact with each other. The game is like a dance and each position has its own choreography.
  11. Maintain your positions?always. Know where you are on the field in relation to where the other players and positions are on the field. And keep the dance going.
  12. ?Find your favorite position and learn it well. Show your coach that this is the right fit for you, and play it fully.
  13. ?Equipment. There is not a lot of equipment, but make sure the stuff you have fits well. Shoes are your key piece of equipment?make sure they fit well.
  14. ?Fair play. Always play fairly, according to the spirit and letter of the rules.
  15. ?Stay calm. Games can become emotional and the pace can become overwhelming; remember to stay calm even when things are not going as well as you would like.
  16. ?Soccer is a team sport. Support and encourage your teammates. Positive encouragement and reinforcement make for better teams and better teammates.
  17. ?Support. Anticipate your teammates? needs and always support your teammate with the ball. Supporting your teammate means being in a position where they can pass the ball to you. Stay far enough away so the pass effectively neutralizes the defender. Stay close enough that they can make a good pass. If you are too far to make a good pass to your teammate, then you are too far for your teammate to make a good pass to you, and you are not supporting.
  18. ?Respect. Show respect to your coaches, referees, your opponents and teammates at all times, win or lose.
  19. ?Endurance. Soccer is a game of endurance and conditioning. Eat well, and sleep and exercise to ensure you are healthy and able to perform at peak levels. Conditioning, skills and tactical knowledge are all important components of a strong player.
  20. ?Defense. Defend your ball at all times. If you lose the ball, be the first to defend. Giving immediate chase is the first rule of defense. Never let down until the ball has been recaptured or the play has moved on.
  21. ?You may hear the coaches shouting ?mark?. This means that if you are not closest to the ball and attacking it, you are on another player, positioning yourself between the ball and your opponent and prevent them from receiving the ball.
  22. ?Passing is important, so is to know when to take your shot. Don?t hesitate to fire a shot at goal if you feel an opportunity. Take your best shot and shoot in the back of the net.
  23. ?Most players are right-footed. Anticipate that your defender will be attacking your right foot so learn to use your left foot?develop your passing, dribbling, and shooting skills with both your left and right feet.
  24. Learn to kick around your target. Don?t shoot towards your defender. Passing or dribbling the ball laterally or even backwards can be a better choice if it maintains possession of the ball. Possession of the ball is key to controlling the pace and direction of the game.
  25. ?Always give 100%. Expect that of those around you and anticipate they expect that of you. Win or lose, be proud of how you played.

Types of Camps

World Cup Soccer Camps offers camps for children from age 5 to 18 based on their experience level, such as Advanced Player?s Camps which focuses on high level players, or those seeking to better their goalkeeping skills or Team Camps to prepare the school team for the upcoming season. Our summer camps are five days long (Monday to Friday), and participants can choose between a half-day and a full-day camp. Half-day sessions run from 9:30 A.M – 12:30 P.M with full-day extending up to 3:00 P.M. For an additional fee, there is extended care option in the mornings and afternoons to address pick-up and drop-off before and after work.

Classic Skill Camps

One of our most common camps is our Classic Skill Camp for players of all levels, ages 7-9. Do not fear that your child will get lost in this camp. The first thing that we do is put the kids into groups according to their age and skill?we evaluate all participants on the first day of camp to ensure their experience is a positive one with learning opportunities at their current skill levels i.e. beginner, intermediate and advanced. The Classic Skill Camp format dedicates the morning session to working on basic skills and soccer concepts, and the afternoon session to teamwork and game situations. While a lot of emphasis is placed on skill development, everything we do and teach is done in a way that is fun and challenging to the participants?no boot camps here.

Daily Agenda

We have a very structured agenda to help participants understand daily expectations and to create consistency between experiences. As noted above, we offer extended childcare upon request from 8-9 A.M in the morning and from 3-6 P.M in the afternoon. Instruction begins sharply at 9:30 A.M, warm up and stretching followed by skills training to teach and improve the fundamentals of soccer, such as passing, dribbling, shooting, etc. After a leisurely one-hour lunch, afternoon activity consists of strategy, team concept games, and a scrimmage to practice the newly-learned skills.

This summer, make it a soccer experience and enroll your child for five day soccer camps in California. To find out more about the camps at World Cup Soccer Camps & Clinics, call us at (408) 354-4949 or e-mail contact@worldcupsoccercamps.com.

How To Get Ready For Soccer Tryouts

Soccer, or football as it is known outside of North America, has proven to be a popular athletic sport for kid and adults. With soccer season coming up that means that it is time for soccer tryouts. Here are a few tips to help people get ready for soccer tryouts.

Equipment

?Soccer is a great sport because there are only a few pieces of equipment needed to play the game. A pair of gym shorts, a T-shirt, athletic socks and running shoes is the basic athletic equipment needed for soccer. People might also want to have gym pants and a longer shirt for cooler outdoor weather practice or games. Those who are training for goalkeeper position may want to purchase goalkeeper gloves, but these gloves are not needed for any other position on a soccer team.

Soccer Tryouts
Soccer is a fun sport to play.

The most important part of the soccer uniform is the shoes. If soccer is being played in an indoor gymnasium or field, then a regular pair of athletic running shoes will suffice. For outdoor soccer, a pair of cleats will be needed. Cleats are a type of athletic shoe that have studs on the bottom of the soles. They are used to help gain traction on the outdoor field, which is particularly helpful if the ground is soft or muddy from a recent rain. While some cleats may be metal and spiked, most cleats will be rounded at the bottom. Pointed cleats are illegal in some soccer organizations due to safety concerns. People should contact the soccer organization directly to find out if spiked cleats are allowed.

While the soccer organization will likely have their own soccer balls for games and tryouts, people should make sure to purchase a soccer ball to practice with, both before tryouts, and after they have made it onto the team. Have a tote or small gym bag to carry the equipment. Do not forget to include a water bottle to keep hydrated.

Soccer Positions

?There are several different positions on a soccer team. The goalkeeper stays in the soccer net and prevents the other team from scoring a goal on the goalkeeper?s team. The defenders help defend their team?s goal from the opposing team. The forwards work together to move the ball forward to score a goal for the opposing team. Midfielders switch between acting as defensive and offensive for their team. The players should pick one position on a soccer team to try out for, as they will be able to work on perfecting their skills for that position during tryouts.

Training

Finally, it is important to practice for tryouts. Improving cardiovascular skills through running or aerobic exercises doing strength training to improve muscle in the legs and calves will help a person improve their soccer skills.

To help improve with specific techniques, like dribbling and passing, people should consider doing a one on one or group training session with a personal soccer trainer. A trainer will make sure people are using the proper technique that decreases the risk of injury (such as a pulled muscle) while increasing peoples? chances of making it onto the soccer team.

If you are interested in honing your soccer skills, sign up for our soccer training camps conducted by expert coaches at World Cup Soccer Camps & Clinics in California. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at 408-354-4949 or?contact@worldcupsoccercamps.com.

Soccer Camps in California: A Teamwork-Building Opportunity for Kids

Teamwork is one of the most vital skills that anyone will ever learn. It allows us to tackle more difficult problems than we would be able to handle on our own, and to get work done much more quickly than a solo effort could ever manage. Teamwork is also one of the harder skills to learn, since no two people are exactly alike. However, as the saying goes, practice makes perfect, and one of the very best ways for kids to practice teamwork is to get involved in a team sport. That?s why many parents?look for soccer camps in California?as a fun and skill-building way for their kids to spend their summer downtime.

There are several ways that soccer camps in California can boost a kid?s teamwork skills. First, and most obviously, soccer is played in teams. One of the first things that kids will learn at soccer camp is that they can?t win a soccer game all by themselves; they need to rely on the help and co-operation of their team. With that in mind, instructors will teach the kids in groups and with partners. They won?t just learn to kick a soccer ball as hard as possible. They?ll learn to kick it to someone else, as well as learning what to do with a ball that a teammate has sent in their direction!

Kids who attend soccer camps in California will also learn leadership skills, another natural part of teamwork. First, they will learn to take directions from team leaders such as coaches and camp counselors. Learning to work with leaders in a friendly, low-pressure environment will develop vital listening skills. Next, kids will learn leadership skills themselves as they come to understand the game better. Learning to help their teammates and take charge of a winning game will teach them how to be strong and considerate leaders.

Soccer camps in California teach teamwork and leadership skills, but like many of the vital life skills that children learn, these skills are taught through play. It?s one thing to be told what teamwork is, or to be taught how to be a leader, but at soccer camps in California, kids learn by doing. A playful and non-threatening setting will open kids up to learning in ways that a classroom never can, and since it encourages interaction and play, soccer camp is an excellent place for kids to make new friends. After all, what better way to make friends with someone than learning to work with them as a team?

There are many possible activities for kids to participate in over the summer. There are camps and workshops and day classes galore. But if you have a child who has a talent for sports and a love of playing with others, look at the?options for soccer camps in Californiathis summer. A soccer camp is more than just a class, and more than just exercise. They provide a unique, fun and enjoyable educational experience for aspiring young athletes.
