SOCCER GOOD PRACTICE

Soccer is an exciting, exciting and fun game. It is easy to learn, as well as a great way to exercise. But football is a contact sport, and injuries can occur. To stay as safe as possible while playing football, follow these tips.

Make sure your team has a coach who emphasizes safe play and fair play, both in games and in training. This includes following national rules on whether it is allowed to head the ball and, if so, how often it is possible to head. Heading the ball can lead to concussions, as well as neck injuries.

To prevent possible injuries while playing football, players should:

·       Have a medical-sports review before starting to practice this sport.

·      Check the field every time to make sure there are no holes or other obstacles, including trash and broken glass. Keep replacement balls and equipment away from the sides of the field before starting to play or train.

·      Check both goals to make sure they are safe. The goals must be well anchored to the ground, and the posts must be well padded. If the field is wet, use synthetic and non-absorbent balls. Leather balls can absorb a lot of water and become very heavy, increasing the risk of injury.

·         Remove any piercing or jewel before playing or training.

·         Preheat and stretch always before training or starting a match.

·         Learn and use appropriate techniques, especially when they head the ball.

·      Stop training if you are injured or feel pain. In this case, players should be evaluated by a coach, monitor, doctor or nurse before returning to the football field.

·      Stay well hydrated, especially on hot sunny days, drinking plenty of fluids before, during and after games and workouts.

·      Know the team plan in case of emergency.

·      Practice several different types of sports throughout the year to prevent possible overload injuries.
