Playing sports for school is a great thing, but have you ever considered playing outside of school?

 

It is actually a really great thing to do. Those who do it have a lot of opportunities to really work on their skills. My close friend Andrea started playing soccer outside of school; she definitely got more playing and practice time. She states, “I loved playing off campus soccer, I think it was very beneficial for me because I learned to work with people very different from those who attended my school, and now I can communicate better and I am a lot more disciplined.”

This just comes to show how it could benefit both kids and teens. We all know technology has become something we are on, on a regular basis, like as if we need it to breathe. Therefore, being on a team outside of school is a very good thing to get kids’ minds doing something positive.
