Like all team games, football will teach collectivism, organization and discipline. Young footballers differ from their peers with dedication, dexterity, self-control, self-control, strength and endurance. At the lessons they learn the basics of acrobatics and gymnastic exercises.

It is important to form the right, positive attitude towards the football game. If the game has ceased to bring pleasure, most likely, the teenager will replace this sport with something else. Children develop unevenly, the situation can change every year. Teenagers already have a foundation - technical, physical, psychological and tactical. The young athlete feels confident in all aspects, he is aware of himself as a person in football. He can come to conclusions that will lead him to the right decision. At the age of 14, we can already say that the football school has almost been mastered and all the necessary skills have been honed. If something does not work out, you need to come to terms with the fact that you should not expect high results in professional terms. If, on the contrary, all skills are developed at the proper level, you need to move on, play football, and move to an adult team.
