From Squadnet's involvement with hundreds of sports clubs we have spoken to many clubs owners and parents on why being involved in a sports club was of value for their kids, here are some of our thoughts on why it is so important:
Social skills and friendships:
Being in a sports club provides an additional opportunity for kids to meet new people and make new friends. This can help build social skills and improve their social circle with like minded people.
Cooperation:
Sports clubs often involve team activities and matches, even in individual sports, which helps kids develop important teamwork and cooperation skills. Learning to work together and negotiate helps build social skills and relationships for the future.
Physical fitness:
As well as the obvious benefits of fitness that comes from playing sport in a club, Regular exercise can also help reduce the risk of many health problems.
Discipline and commitment:
Being in a sports club can help kids develop discipline and commitment as they learn to set goals, work hard to improve their skills and hopefully this transfers across all areas of their lives.
Confidence and self-esteem:
Being in a sports club also teach kids new skills and techniques, the process of learning assists to develop a sense of confidence and self-esteem, which can help them in other areas of their life.
Leadership and responsibility:
Some sports clubs provide opportunities for kids to take on leadership roles, such as team captain or coaches. These roles can help kids develop leadership skills and a sense of responsibility.
In Summary, being in a sports club for kids is a great way for kids to have fun, stay active, and develop a range of physical, mental, and social skills that can benefit them throughout their lives.
