TEENAGERS NEED SPORT! Did you know 1 in 3 teenagers leave their sport? Listed below a few life changing benefits when teens stay in sport, please read!
Playing Sports Can Improve Academic Performance
Participation in sports is linked to better grades and professional success in the workforce. If you’re an athlete, you tend to have a more positive attitude toward school, improved academic performance, and higher aspirations for college.
Sports Help Shape Identity
Cheerleading and Dance affords you the unique positive benefits of identity formation. Sports are a great way for teens to form an identity outside their family. And since most sports take place after school hours, teens have a chance to forge their own path. Teens take pride in the fact that they are athletes, which helps them establish their identity.
Sport Provide Social Benefits
When you’re an athlete you belong to something special, an entity greater than yourself. You have a built-in social network, and you know that you can have the support of your teammates when you need it. Having positive relationships with one’s teammates can do wonders for a teen’s wellbeing. In fact, being part of a team is a protective factor against depression.
Sports Let You Learn From a Role Model
Belonging to a team also allows teens to form an attachment to a mentor. coaches are neither teachers nor parents. They help teens learn and grow in new and different ways, under a unique set of rules and norms, all while teaching them skills they don’t learn at home or in class. A great coach can inspire his or her athletes to become better, more mature young adults. Coaches can instill a sense of responsibility, hard work, discipline, and sportsmanship in their athletes. They can also boost up a student’s self-esteem through praise and constructive feedback. In these ways, great coaches can become role models and mentors who inspire their athletes.
