One of the boys in the group displayed signs of hyperactivity and impulsiveness, often struggling to control his energy similar to symptoms associated with ADHD. At the start, he was restless and occasionally aggressive toward other children. However, through consistent participation in the structured games and movement-based activities, the same ones that supported the first girl’s development, he began to show significant behavioral improvements. Gradually, he learned to manage his energy, wait for his turn, and allow others to participate. His attitude shifted from impulsive and disruptive to calm and cooperative. He became more focused and organized during training sessions, showing greater awareness of his surroundings. According to his mother, the positive change extended to his home life as well. He became more disciplined, attentive, and respectful, often listening to her instructions for the first time without resistance.

At the beginning of the program, she struggled with maintaining focus during practice and had difficulty engaging with her peers. However, through the structured games and activities including movement exercises using cones and parachutes, music-based games, and various educational activities. The girl’s attention and participation improved remarkably. These interactive and dynamic sessions helped her regain focus and confidence. Over time, her overall behavior became noticeably more positive; she began taking part actively in writing, group discussions, and physical activities. Coach Ali emphasized that the change in her attitude reflected not only increased concentration but also a growing sense of motivation and joy in learning through play.

Coach Ali

As a coach and activist at the “Sport for Life” organization, this experience has had a profound impact on both my professional and personal development. It has helped me build my identity as both a coach and a teacher for various age groups and generations. Sport goes beyond being just physical activity—it develops a range of life skills in children, encouraging them to think outside the box and discover their abilities and talents in a safe and enjoyable environment. As a coach and teacher in gymnastics and basketball, particularly among girls, I have witnessed firsthand how sport enhances not only physical skills but also social and psychological growth. Trainees, whether in formal training or beyond, learn how to interact positively with others and become more capable of facing everyday challenges. I am grateful to “Sport for Life,” as it was the starting point of my journey and has contributed to shaping a cohesive and supportive community that fosters learning, growth, and empowerment.
