Children can learn the importance of working together towards a common goal and the commitment required to excel in any field.

Players can learn to see and learn how strict the player’s nutrition intake and their desire to eat appropriately to supply the right energy to their muscles. Players can hear stories how regimented their daily lives are which includes regularly sleeping eight hours of sleep.

Discipline and Strategy: The discipline players show on the field, adhering to strategies and tactics, can teach children the significance of following rules and the benefits of strategic thinking. These are the nation’s best players who are not just selected for being the best in their position but also terrific teammates placing the needs of the team before themselves.

This can inspire children to adopt a mindset of lifelong learning and self-improvement. A key factor is understanding the struggle of failure comes before success and acknowledgement. That is the process every person goes through who is recognized and acknowledged for their achievements.

Educational Programs: UEFA has introduced ‘The Substitutes’ for EURO 2024, a dynamic educational platform with lessons spanning sports, mathematics, geography, music, languages, science, technology, and creative art. This program, featuring Jamal Musiala and mascot Albärt, aims to inspire young people to embrace getting active and to value the physical, mental, and social health benefits of regular exercise and movement3.

By discussing these aspects while watching the games, parents can turn the excitement of the tournament into a learning experience that goes beyond soccer and helps children develop into well-rounded individuals.
