How To Create A Fun Atmosphere....





Here 7 reasons why you should add music in your drills for yourself or if you lead sports activities:


  • Music has a way of making people feel happy and get into 'the moment' and this can be transferred into a sporting context. It is why Football Freestylers use music when they are performing their soccer skills. 

  • Using music as a collective group and even having every one singing along to it could create a sense of unity in team environment.

  • Music encourages people to move and the essence of many sport is movement.

  • The combination of doing something enjoyable and hearing something that is actually music to the ears could be a great way to challenge concentration skills. 

  • So you should put on some upbeat music with motivating/fun words in your drills to create a fun atmosphere.

  • Music gives you rhythm. In sports like Boxing rhythm is part of being able to throw a punch/jab every X number of seconds, dodging and good foot work. It is about repetition and practice.

  • Music & sport can be quite enjoyable for kids and young people especially because the combination  allows individuals to express themselves physically and mentally.
