Sample Workout

Warm up (approx. 5 minutes) Soccer is all about mobility and the BallFitness™ limber up reflects this with a series of gentle body movements targetting the specific muscles that will be used during subsequent components of the workout.
Dynamic/Static Stretches (approx. 5 minutes)
The importance of stretching in any well thought-out fitness program cannot be understated. As the body is not fully warmed up yet, a series of very gentle stretches are introduced to prepare the body for the next phase of the workout. This approach is designed to ensure that at all times during the session, the risk of injury is minimised.
Continuous Movement Ball Mastery (approx. 8 minutes)
Ball mastery activities introduce some basic features of ball control and movement using hand movements and Footwork. This will involve individual and group activity with the emphasis on basic techniques and increasing the heart rate.
Stretches (approx. 3 minutes)
Several more Dynamic and Static stretching exercises will be used to ensure the participants body is ready for game activity.
Game Scenario Drills
(approx. 16 minutes)

BallFitness™ Program Duration

By continuously varying the BallFitness™ program and introducing new techniques, drills and challenges to maintain high levels of enthusiasm, a once or twice a week session over a 6 to 9 week period can deliver substantial benefits, not just in regard to improving aerobic and general fitness levels, but also, picking up some of the skills of soccer and HandBall. In many cases, for a large number of those new to the games, this can lead to an interest in sport that may remain with them for the rest of their lives.
