Youth football academies do way more than just teach the game. I was reading about it the other day in an article https://footballexpress.in/breaking-indias-cricket-monopoly-diversifying-sports-investment/, and it covers how these places help kids develop discipline, teamwork, and even leadership skills. My own cousin went from being super shy to leading his team on the field, and that confidence carried over to his studies and everyday life. Plus, even if the kids don’t go pro, they come out healthier and with friends they wouldn’t have met otherwise. Feels like a win-win to me.
