Starting to bring more fitness into our training sessions now ready for the new season in a few weeks 💪🏻
⚽ Why fitness matters for U15 players ⚽️
* 🏃 Last longer in games – Good fitness helps players maintain their performance from the first minute to the last.
* 💨 Speed and acceleration – Fitness supports those short bursts needed to beat an opponent, recover defensively or get to the ball first.
* 🔄 Faster recovery – Players can recover more quickly after sprints and repeated efforts.
* 🛡️ Helps prevent injuries – Strength, mobility, balance and conditioning can help players cope better with the demands of football.
* 🎯 Improves football skills under pressure – When players aren’t exhausted, they’re more likely to make better passes, tackles, runs and decisions.
* 💪 Builds confidence – Feeling fit can make players more confident in their ability to compete.
* 🤝 Helps the whole team – A fitter team can press together, track back and keep its shape for longer.
