SKC Academy
SKC Academy which JDSFA runs for children with developmental disabilities is the only soccer school in Japan led by JDSFA certified professional coaches. This is a safe place for the children to have fun. Their faces are naturally full of smiles and passion. The smiles of the children running
around make parents smile, too. Smiles fill everyone’s faces.
My son is a child who runs away from things that he is
not confident in or that are new to him and cannot take
action. However, in soccer, he was able to experience “I
did it!” “I want to do it!,” and that gave him confidence.
He said “I want to dom it!” “I want to be better!” and
became ambitious.
It has been utilized in his daily life, and even things that he is worried about have changed into “Let’s see it once and try it.”
