PHYSICAL AND MENTAL WELLBEING

The relationship between sports and physical wellbeing is well known, but what perhaps isn't so obvious, is the positive relationship sports and mental health can have. Just as little at 15 minutes of exercise can have numerous benefits: boosted brain power, increased wellbeing, increased confidence, improved confidence, reduced anxiety, increased self esteem, increased mood, reduced low mood, increased energy levels and, reduced stress levels. Just think how what a huge impact a 45 minute PE club could have on your afternoon!
