Professionals are not born that way
but are made through hours of play, practice, training, discipline, focus, teamwork and exposure. In recent
times most Football Academies now combine high school education and
soccer to reach their full potentials. As
parents, you owe your child the obligation of helping them do their homework. You
could enquire from your child to find out his interest, what makes him or her
happy. If soccer, basketball, music etc.
was all he knew and the only thing that brings him happiness, then try to make
it happen by being there as a guide and help make that dream become a reality.
By doing this, the bond between you and your child becomes stronger.
