Frequently Asked Questions

what to bring? Soccer ball, water bottle, cleats, and a positive attitude!
I have never played Ball Sports before. Is BallFitness suitable for me? Yes - BallFitness™ is suitable for all ability levels. The program is structured so that participants always operate at their comfortable level. Our trainers will always encourage your development, and the environment is one of learning and fun. It is also a non-contact fitness format which is especially helpful to people who are new to Ball games. Our 'No tackling' rules make for an exciting Handball/Soccer experience which lets you build confidence 'on the ball'.
My Child is significantly overweight, Will it be very strenuous for him? If your child is a beginner we will ensure he proceeds slowly - we do not raise intensity levels too early in the programme. This can take place all in good time - as your child skills, fitness and confidence develop (this may take some weeks). Please discuss your progress with the trainer and they will generally be able to advise you.

Forget the workout, why not just play Sport? It is important to remember that BallFitness™ is first and foremost a fitness workout – the handball and soccer part makes this interesting and enjoyable and sets up an outlet for ‘what comes after’ i.e. when people reach a suitable fitness level, they can consider joining a Netball or Soccer team. And of course, one of the key facets of BallFitness™ as a workout is that there are large parts of the program that can be carried out on your own, without any dependency on anyone else. It is important to teach these routines to participants and afford them an opportunity to practice them as well.
Why bother with Drills? A major benefit of spending time doing drills is that it helps to tap into one of the key ways that a brain ‘learns’ how to efficiently and speedily carry out complex tasks. By intensively repeating tasks, they become ‘second nature’ to the brain and this allows well-trained players to do things instinctively, ‘without thinking’, during a game.
How does it differ from regular Fitness training? The emphasis is on fitness and fun. Also, with BallFitness™, the drills and activities are specially chosen for their suitability to a fitness-oriented workout, and they take into account the different ability levels of participants.
