Football social learning process

This book addresses team sports in general and soccer in particular to discuss their social integrative effect on the 10 to 14 year old child. The focus is not only on the performance-specific approach of football, but also on the therapeutic socially integrative connection between a team sport and the social structure of the group itself. Theoretical approaches from relevant literature will be related to practical examples from football lessons. Particular attention will be paid to the different approaches to how team sports, especially football, can affect the behaviour of the 10 to 14 year old child.
