I would like to welcome all the new girls and parents who has recently joined
our 03 team. It would be great if you take a look to our previous posts to get
an idea of which content we share here and also how much you are going to learn
and enjoy soccer with us.
Last Saturday we ran our
first Street Soccer session. This will be a regular developmental program
focused on encourage our players to develop creativity and new skills.
What is Street Soccer?
Street Soccer refers to
the various kinds of pickup soccer games played in parks, gyms and in the
streets and alleys in countries across the world. The defining character of
street soccer is that it is free from the constraints of usual soccer games
such as referee’s, boundaries and positions.
Why Street Soccer?
Creativity is difficult,
if not impossible, to teach. It can only be encouraged by providing the
environment that helps foster it, one that rewards risk taking, imagination and
inventiveness.
This street soccer
environment is crucial for developing youth soccer players. It enables them to
try new things and be clever on the ball while having fun. It gives them the
opportunity to stabilize their skills, develop at their own pace and build
confidence. It exposes players continually to solving soccer-related problems
on their own, which helps them develop their independent decision-making skills
through trial and error. But most important, it allows young players to enjoy
the game for what it really is – a game.
