Beth Kerr: Impact of Phones on Wellbeing For Developing Footballers
Wellbeing consultant Beth Kerr shares a key tip for parents of young football players: keep phones out of bedrooms at night. She stresses this isn’t about trust, but about removing temptation.
Beth compares having a phone nearby to trying to resist chocolates while on a diet – it’s simply too challenging. Beth admits that it’s not always easy to implement these steps, but can make a big difference.
This advice is especially important for parents of young footballers and any athlete, as good sleep is vital for performance and overall wellbeing.
