The sport is not only fun and venting ... it's an educational method

In ancient Greece they used to say "Mens sana in corpore sano" which means "a healthy mind in a healthy body". In modern usage it means that, for healthy faculties of the soul, even those must have healthy body.

This is the motto of many college sports teams, such as the CUS (University Sports Centre) of the University of Pisa and the Technion. The company's name ASICS is an acronym of the phrase "Anima Sana In Corpore Sano", a variant of the Latin phrase in question.

Scientific basis, studies and research

It has been shown that there is a close correlation between motor skills and attentional capacity and memory of a person. In particular, the relevant research of Darla M. Castelli, Charles H. Hillman, Sarah M. Buck and Heather E.

Howard Taras, in his report published in 2005 titled "Physical Activity and Student Performance at School" has shown that students who are physically active have higher attention during lessons than sedentary students.

Lisa Flook and Rena L. Repetti of the University of California at Los Angeles, in collaboration with Jodie B.

The role of the contact sport: Football, American Football, Rugby and FieldHockey

In some countries, these sports have an important role in educational institutions that organize real championships.

Creating new sport fields or renovating existing ones in accordance to the safety standards , requires today commitment together with the efforts of the institute that can get help from parents and even grandparents who have time available to implement and maintain quality facilities.

And that's why for sports fields in the clay courts or in grass we propose PowerGrass that, resistant to intensive traffic, it lends itself to the school activities not only limited to sports, but also for the parties and the free play of children and adults. A natural environment without any particular difficulties in maintenance.

In the fields for 5 to 7 players, the game is more concentrated and if activity exceeds 5-6 hours per day and/or where the climatic conditions are not suitable for the growth of grass, we adopt an artificial Turf Relastic Turf which is the best way to avoid failure.
