Why sport is essential for a rounded child

Sport delivers a number of benefits, there is the obvious benefits around health and co-ordination. But the secondary benefits which I would argue are more important around focus, motovation , the ability to take instruction and socialbility are often overlooked. The key to picking a sport for your child is to take something that they have an interest in and encourage (not push) it
