Why YOU Should Play Beach Soccer

People love playing soccer at the beach, as it is very good exercise and you can take in some amazing views. On sand, it is much harder to dribble a soccer ball and navigate your way throughout the “pitch”. Thankfully, Senda’s Playa Beach Soccer Ball allows you to play soccer at the beach with greater ease, while still maximizing the amount of fun you can have playing the sport we all love. Here are a couple of reasons why you should play beach soccer.

By playing beach soccer, you are developing a more keen sense of your first touch. Balls will come at higher speeds from different areas of the pitch, leaving you little room for error. Therefore, your first touch of the soccer ball will be crucially important, as you do not want to give up possession based on careless errors.

Since the beach playing area is likely to be a lot more compact than a regular soccer field, beach soccer allows you to become more comfortable with the ball in tighter spaces. Learning to deal with pressure from both attackers and defenders is a valuable skill that translates into professional play. Being aware of your surroundings and not letting that affect your play is a great metric that helps you evaluate how much better at soccer you are becoming.

In beach soccer, you are afforded very few strikes on goal. Therefore, when you are given an split-second opportunity to go for goal, you should definitely take your chances in stride. These small windows of opportunity allow for a soccer player to develop their timing when it comes to offensive play, and this critical for as fluid and dynamic as a sport as beach soccer is.

Now that you know the different reasons that you should play beach soccer, you should definitely check out Senda’s Playa Beach Soccer Ball, as it is a great way to test out all of these amazing features of Beach Soccer!
