June Education: Preparing during the summer break
While the calendar is indicating that Summer has just arrived, the reality is the new Fall season will be starting very quickly. For many youth athletes summer may mean a loss of structure to our days; no school, no practices, no formal games, and a loss of some of the development gains made throughout the past season. Summer challenges players to find the balance between much needed rest from a long Spring season, and the need to prepare for the upcoming season. With some simple planning and the right focus, athletes and their families can make great use of the summer weeks to be prepared for the next season.
Here are a few key areas young athletes can work on this summer:
- REST
- NUTRITION
- PLAY
- SOCCER IQ
- GET ON THE BALL
